the belles of mauchline
    in mauchline there dwells six proper young belles,
    the pride of the place and its neighbourhood a';
    their carriage and dress, a stranger would guess,
    in lon'on 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 armour's the jewel for me o' them a'.
