Then said the one unto ⟨the⟩ other,
Here, man, tak ye my knife,
Do ye tak aff the auld man's ⟨beard⟩,
and ⟨I'll⟩ kiss the guidwife.
But there snae water in the house,
and what shall we do than?
What aits ye at the pudding broo,
That ⟨boils⟩ into the pan.
O then up started our gudeman,
and an angry man was he,
Will ye kiss my wife before my een,
and scad me wi’ pudding bree.
Then up and ⟨started our⟩ guidwife,
Gied three skips on ⟨the⟩ floor:
Gudeman ye've spoke the foremost word,
Get up and bar the door.
Wilt thou go my bonnie lassie??
Wilt thou go, my bonnie lassie.
wilt thou go my braw lassie
Wilt thou go say I or no
to the braes aboon Bonaw, lassie.
Tho Donald hae na meikle phrase
wi’ lawland speeches fine lassie
