FELTON LONNIN'

The Swine came jumping down Pelton Lonnin',
The swine came jumping down Pelton Loonin',
The swine came jumping down Pelton Lonnin',
There's five black swine and never and odd one.

Three i' the dyke and two i' the lonnin',
Three i' the dyke and two i' the lonnin',
Three i' the dyke and two i' the lonnin,'
That's five black swine and never an odd one.

-Cuthbert Sharp's Bishoprick Garland

The kye's come hame, but I see not my hinny,
They kye's come hame, but I see not my bairn;
I'd rather loss a' the kye than loss my hinny,
I'd rather loss a' the kye than loss my bairn.

Fair faced is my hinny, his blue eyes are bonny,
His hair in curl'd ringlets hung sweet to the sight;
O mount the old pony, seek after my hinny,
And bring to his mammy her only delight.
