* From an expression in Allan Cunningham's fine song, " A wet sheet, and a flowing sea, " landsmen are apt to imagine that a sail is meant, whereas it is a rope. When a ship is sailing before the wind, she is said to be going with a flow- ing sheet ; that is, with the sheets, or ropes, of the main and foresails slack; in contradistinction to the sheet, or tack, being close-hawl'd v, 'hen sailing on a ivind. She may he gentle tliy heart's love, She may be fair and fine ; But, by the heav'n aboon... our head, She canna be like mine. O ! her cheek's like the rosy glow That maks the bvirdies chirl : Her ee is like the lightning's lowe That gars the heartstrings dirl. Her lips are like the cherries twin, That grow ujton ae shank; Her breath — it beats the simmer win' 1' the lowne o' a llow'ry bank. Her neck is like the siller stoiir That bowses frae the linn ; Her breast — O, its a lily bower, That ane wad fain lie in '. Awa', awa', ye wooer youth, Yours may be fair and fine ; But, by the heav'n aboon our head.
