Comments:

Final group of songs, pp. 219-230 are from Ramsay's The Gentle Shepherd (headed with the note 'See the following Songs in their proper Places in a Pastoral Comedy lately publish'd, entitl'd, The Gentle Shepherd.' p. 219). The titles of many of these songs seem to refer to the tunes to which they would be sung. Note on p. 222 (misprint for 224) highlights that one other song from 'the Pastoral', 'By the delicious Warmness of thy Mouth' is printed 'in the Tea-Table Miscellany, p. 81.'
