Songs listed in the Folger index of first lines: A lass that was loaden with care, At setting day and rising morn, At Upton on the hill, Because I was a bonny lad, Blab not what you ought to smother, By the gaily circling glass, Can love be controll'd by advice?, Celia my heart has often rang'd like bees on gaudy flowers, Come Rosalind O come and see What pleasures are in store for thee, Fly swiftly ye minutes, Hide me from day's garish eye, How blest has my time been, Is there a charm, Love's a gentle gen'rous passion, Mortals wisely learn to measure, Mourn hapless Caledonia mourn, No more shall meads be deck'd with flowers, On every hill, Sweet were once the joys I tasted, Sylvia on her arm reclining, Sylvia wilt thou waste thy prime?, Tell me lovely shepherd where?, The bush a' boon Traquair, The lass of the hill, The maid that's made for love and me, To gain my gentle Jessy what labor would seem hard?, Too plain dear youth, What beauteous scenes, When love and youth cannot make way, Ye swains who possess the rich treasure
