song—out over the forth

out over the forth, i look to the north;

but what is the north and its hignds to ?

the south nor the east gie ease to breast,

the far foreignnd, or the wide rolling sea.

but i look to the west when i gae to rest,

that happy drea and sluers y be;

for far in the west lives he i loe best,

the n that is dear to babie and .
