FOOTNOTES:

[15] At the request of one Roger, a music-master in Edinburgh, who had

obtained a copy of the first two stanzas, a third was added by Mr Robert

Chambers, and in this form the song appears in some of the collections.

Mr Chambers's stanza proceeds thus:--

In southern climes the radiant sun

A brighter light displays;

But I love best his milder beams

That shine on Scotland's braes.

Then dear, romantic native land

If e'er I roam from thee,

I'll ne'er forget the cheering lay;

O Scotland's hills for me!
