CXCII — 5th Figure
[Xml]
Me lassie me dundooze,
me dundooze come kiss me,
The kiss that you give me it rest on me mind till it give me the aygo.
When we married an’ settled down we have no cause to say,
For as soon as the parson pass up the sentence nothing to part us.
“Dundooze” (or dundoze, for it is rather hard to catch the vowel) is a term of endearment. Others are, honey, lover, sugar, sweety, marvel, bolow, bahzoon.
“Aygo” is ague; “say,” perhaps, sunder.
