N: This song has a lot of rhythm errors, some perhaps due to poor printing.
N: Added bar line after first note to correct the rhythm;
N: Fixed bar 2's missing 8th note to match other bars.
N: Bar 7 has an odd dot after/below the b; not transcribed.
N: Both strains have incorrect rhythm in their last measures; fixed by lengthening the last notes.
N: Also changed initial G pickup to 1/8 note, since no other bars have 1/16-note pickups.
N: Bar 11 has an extra 1/8 length; corrected by shortening the a note.
N: Bar 12 has an extra 1/8 length; shortened the "-rits" syllable to fix it.

W:      It maks me blythe and bauld,
W:    And naething gies me sic delight
