"Dream thro' that night, 'till my day-star appear;"

Page 70, line 5 from bottom:--

"_Peggy._ Were ilka hair that appertains to me Worth an estate, they all belong to thee: My sheers are ready, take what you demand, And aught what love with virtue may command.

_Patie._ Nae mair I'll ask; but since we've little time,"

Page 72, line 9 from top:--

"What want ye, Bauldy, at this [early silent] hour, When nature nods beneath the drowsy pow'r:"

Page 73, line 8 from bottom:--

"Lows'd down my breeks, while I like a great fool,"

[_Not in edition of 1850._

Page 82, line 12 from bottom:--

"_Patie._ Good nurse, dispatch thy story wing'd with blisses, That I may give my cusin fifty kisses."

Besides the above, there occur, in the edition of 1761, about 50 _verbal_ alterations, additions, and omissions; and about 75 in the edition of 1800. In the edition of 1850 there are fewer changes, it having been partially corrected, probably from the 8vo edition of 1808. These verbal changes are rarely, if ever, improvements; frequently of little consequence, and sometimes they appear silly; for instance, towards the end of the Pastoral there is subst.i.tuted, in two or three instances, Archbald instead of Bauldy! We have not, therefore, thought it worth while to note them here. We rather think that our readers, generally, will not consider the readings above given, as improvements on those in the text.
