HOW SWEET THE LOVE THAT MEETS RETURN. 
  A Favorite Song.
Sung by Mrs. Kennedy, at Vauxhall;  and set to Music by Mr.
Hook.
  The Words by a Lady.
I.
When first I kenn'd young Sandy's face,
He sung, and look'd wi'se a grace;
He stole my heart, but did na care,
The lad he loo'd a lass more fair;
And as I sung o'er brae and burn,
How sweet's the love that meets return.
