there i'll despise imperial charms,

an empress or sultana,

while dying raptures in her arms

i give and take wi' anna!

awa, thou flaunting god of day!

awa, thou pale diana!

ilk star, gae hide thy twinkling ray,

when i'm to meet my anna!

&nbspe, in thy raven plumage, night,

(sun, moon, and stars, withdrawn a';)

and bring an angel-pen to write

my transports with my anna!
