Allan Ramsay

For when I dinna clearly see, I always own I dinna ken, And that's the way with wisest men.

You have sae saft a voice and slid a tongue, You are the darling of baith auld and young.

A dish of married love right soon grows cauld.

A bleezing ingle, and a clean hearthstane.

Let fowk bode weel, and strive to do their best; Nae mair's required—let Heaven make out the rest.
