LINES INSCRIBED ON A PLATTER.
My blessings on ye, honest wife,
I ne'er was here before:
Ye've wealth o' gear for spoon and knife
Heart could not wish for more.
I ne'er was here before:
Ye've wealth o' gear for spoon and knife
Heart could not wish for more.
Heaven keep you clear of sturt and strife,
Till far ayont four score,
And by the Lord o' death and life,
I'll ne'er gae by your door!
Till far ayont four score,
And by the Lord o' death and life,
I'll ne'er gae by your door!
