Peer man ! her fadder weel we ken, He's but an ass-buird meaker ; But she's town-bred, and, silly gowk, Thou'd gie thy teeth to teake her. I've seen thee flyre and jwoke like mad, At aw our country fellows ; But now thou seeghs and luiks like death, Or yen gawn to the gallows ; Thou's sous'd owre head and ears i' luive Nay, nobbet luik at cwoley ! He wags his tail, as if to say, " Wey, what's the matter, Wully ?" There's lads but few in our town, And lasses, wanters, plenty, And he that fain wa...d wed a weyfe May weale yen out o' twenty ! There's Tamer Toppin, Aggy Sharp, And clogger Wilkin's Tibby : There's Greacy Gurvin, Matty Meer, And thingumbob's lal Debby : 3 5 o Robert A nderson, Then there's Wully Guffy's dowter Nan Ait thee aye keeks and glances, For tou's the apple o' her e'en At cairdin neets and dances; My titty, tui, ae neet asleep, Cried, " Canny Wully Miller ! " I poud her hair, she blush'd rwose reed, Sae gang thy ways e'en till her. Tell mudder aw the news tou kens ; To fadder talk o' the weather ; Then lilt tern up a sang or twea, To please tern aw together ; She'll set thee out, then speak thy mind- She'll suit thee till a shavin ; But town-bred deames, to sec as we, Are seldom worth the havin.
