reply to a trimming epistle received from a tailor
what ails ye now, ye lousie bitch
to thresh my back at sic a pitch?
losh, man! hae mercy wi' your natch,
your bodkin's bauld;
i didna suffer half sae much
frae daddie auld.
what tho' at times, when i grow crouse,
i gie their wames a random pouse,
is that enough for you to souse
your servant sae?
gae mind your seam, ye prick-the-louse,
an' jag-the-flea!
king david, o' poetic brief,
wrocht 'mang the lasses sic mischief
as filled his after-life wi' grief,
an' bluidy rants,
an' yet he's rank'd amang the chief
o' lang-syne saunts.
and maybe, tam, for a' my cants,
my wicked rhymes, an' drucken rants,
i'll gie auld cloven's clootie's haunts
an unco slip yet,
an' snugly sit amang the saunts,
at davie's hip yet!
but, fegs! the session says i maun
gae fa' upo' anither plan
than garrin lasses coup the cran,
clean heels ower body,
an' sairly thole their mother's ban ↑返回顶部↑
