VOL. VI. 61 COME DRAW WE ROUND A CHEERFUL RING. WRITTEN FOR THIS WORK BY JOANNA BAILLIE. The Air, communicated without a name, by a Friend. v^ome, draw we round a cheerful ring, And broach the foaming ale,And let the merry maiden sing, The beldame tell her tale :And let the sightless harper sit The blazing faggot by;And let the jester vent his wit, His tricks the urchin try. Who shakes the door with angry din. And would admitted be ;No,—Gossip Winter, snug within, We have no room for scud it oer Killameys lake, ? And shake the willows bare ;The water-elf his sport doth take, Thoult find a comrade there. Will-o-the-wisp skips in the dell, The owl hoots on the treejThey hold their nightly vigil well, And so the while will strike we up the rousing glee, And pass the beaker round,While evry head right merrily Is moving to the sound.
