In Mauchline there dwells six proper young belles,
The pride of the place and its neighbourheed a',
Their carriage and dress, a stranger would guess,
In London or Paris, they'd gotten it a'.
Miss Miller is fine, Miss Markland's divine,
Miss Smith she has wit, and Miss Betty is braw,
There's beauty and fortune to get wi' Miss Morton,
But Amour's the jewel for me o' them a'.
