AS I sate at my Spinning-Wheel, a bonny Lad there passed by, I keen'd him round, and I lik'd him weel, geud Faith he had a bonny Eye: My Heart new panting, 'gan to feel, But still I turn'd my Spinning-Wheel.
Most gracefully he did appear, As he my presence did draw near, And round about my slender Waste, He clasp'd his Arms and me embrac'd: To kiss my hand he down did kneel, As I sate at my Spinning-Wheel.
My Milk-white Hand he did extol, And prais'd my Fingers long and small, And said, there was no Lady fair, That ever could with me compare: Those pleasing words my Heart did feel, But still I turn'd my Spinning-wheel. Altho' I seemingly did chide, Yet he would never be deny'd, But did declare his love the more, Untill my Heart was wounded sore; That I my love could scarce conceal, But yet I turn'd my Spinning-wheel. As for my Yarn, my Rock, and Reel, And after that my Spinning-Wheel, He bid me leave them all with speed, And gang with him to yonders Mead: My panting Heart strange flames did feel, Yet still I turn'd my Spinning-wheel.
He stopt and gaz'd and blithly said, Now speed thee weel my bonny Maid, But if thou'st to the Hay-Cock go, I'll learn thee better Work I trow; Geud Faith I lik'd him passing weel, But still I turn'd my Spinning-wheel. He lowly vail'd his Bonnet oft, And sweetly Kist my Lips so soft, Yet still between each honey Kiss, He urg'd me gang to farther bliss; I resistless fire did feel, Then let alone my Spinning-wheel. Among the pleasant Cocks of Hay, Then with my bonny Lad I lay, What Damsel ever could deny, A Youth with such a Charming Eye? The pleasure I cannot reveal, It far surpast the Spinning-wheel.
