These bleed afresh, those ties I tear,

To leave the bonnie banks of Ayr.

IV.

Farewell, old Coila's hills and dales,
Her heathy moors and winding vales;
The scenes where wretched Fancy roves,
Pursuing paft, unhappy loves!

Farewell, my friends! farewell, my foes!
My peace with thefe, my love with those-
The bursting tears my heart declare,
Farewell, the bonnie banks of Ayr!

SONG.

FROM thee, Eliza, I must go,

And from my native shore:
The cruel fates between us throw
A boundless ocean's roar :

But boundless oceans, roaring wide,
Between my Love and me,

They never, never can divide

My heart and foul from thee:

Farewell, farewell, Eliza dear,"

The maid that I adore!

A boding voice is in mine ear,
We part to meet no more!

But the last throb that leaves my heart,
While death stands victor by,

That throb, Eliza, is thy part,
And thine that latest figh!

ADIEU! a heart-warm, fond adieu !
Dear brothers of the myftic tye!
Ye favour'd, ye enlighten'd Few,

Pursuing Fortune's flidd'ry ba',
With melting heart, and brimful eye
I'll mind you ftill, tho' far awa’.

Oft have I met your focial Band,
And spent the chearful, feftive night;
Oft, honour'd with fupreme command,
Prefided o'er the Sons of light:
And by that Hieroglyphic bright,

Which none but Craftsmen ever saw!
Strong Mem'ry on my heart fhall write
Thofe happy scenes when far awa'!
