Part 106 (1/2)

When you're gaun and coate's no toom

When you're ser'd a' the geese are watered

When your hair's white, ye wad hae it lockering

”'Locker,' curled Spoken of one who is immoderate in his desires”--_Jamieson_

When your neighbour's house is in danger tak tent o' your ain

Where drums beat laws are dumb

Where the buck's bound there he may bleat

”Men must bear these hardshi+ps to which they are bound either by force or compact”--_Kelly_

Where the deer's slain the blude will lie

Where the head gaes the tail will follow

Where there are gentles there are aye aff-fa'in's

There is such abundance of good prepared, that so may be reasonably expected for the poor It s of the aristocracy

Where there's muckle courtesy there's little kindness

Where there's naething the king tines his right

While ae gab's teething anither's growing teethless

Whiles you, whiles aes the bailierie

”Spoken when persons and parties get authority by turns”--_Kelly_

White legs wad aye be rused

Whitely things are aye tender

White siller's wrought in black pitch

Wi' an empty hand nae man can hawks lure

”If you would have anything done for you, you ”--_Kelly_

Wide lugs and a short tongue are best

Wide ear, but tight will tear

Addressed to those who complain that a new article of dress is too wide for them
