The Belles Of Mauchline
the belles of mauchline
in mauchline there dwells six proper young belles,
the pride of the place and its neighbourhood a';
their carriage and dress, a stranger would guess,
in lon'on or paris, they'd gotten it a'.
miss miller is fine, miss markland's divine,
miss smith she has wit, and miss betty is braw:
there's beauty and fortune to get wi' miss morton,
but armour's the jewel for me o' them a'.
