172            TONE-POETRY OF ROBERT BURNS
No. 192. O, ken ye what Meg o' the Mill has gotten ?
(first version.)
Tune : O ken ye what Meg.
Scots Musical Museum, 1803, No. 566.
O, ken ye what Meg o' the Mill has gotten? An' ken ye what Meg o' the Mill has gotten? A braw new naig wi' the tail o' a rottan, And that's what Meg o' the Mill has gotten!
O, ken ye what Meg o' the Mill lo'es dearly? An' ken ye what Meg o' the Mill lo'es dearly? A dram o' glide strunt in a morning early, And that's what Meg o' the Mill lo'es dearly!
O, ken you how Meg o' the Mill was married? An' ken ye how Meg o' the Mill was married? The priest he was oxter'd, the dark he was carried, And that's how Meg o' the Mill was married!
