It is as meet as a thief for the widdie. I would I had as meikle pepper as he counts himself worthy Mice dirt. It will be an ill web to bleitch. I cannot find you both tails and ears. It is ill to make a bowing horn of a tods tail. If ever ye make a lucky pudding, I shall eat the prick. It that God will give, the Devil cannot reave. In a good time I speak it, in a better I leave it. It's a silly pack that may not pay the custom. I have seen as light a green. It's a cold coal to blow at. It is a fair feild where all are dung down. It's a fair dung bairn that dare not greit. I wat where my own shoe binds me. If ye wanted me, and your meat, you would want ane good friend. |
