Hate to seem ignorant. But what is a 'siuler', here, please? Seems to be a sort of beggar in the DT version, as whom the machinating seducer disguises himself; but cannot find the word in this connotation elsewhere. Can find nothing by googling except this song; nor in my Chambers. All I can find in the full OED is that it is an obsolete form of a word meaning a sieve-maker. Why should one of those ramble in guise of a beggar, or attract the attention of the opposite sex, particularly?

Mystified.
