THE TERRIBLE LAW.
THE terrible law when it fastens its paw,
On a poor man, it grips him till he’s undone;
And what I am doing may prove to my ruin,
Though rich as the Lord Mayor of Loudon,
Therefore I'll be wary what message I carry,
Unless we first make a sure zure bargain;
I will be dempnified, thorowly satisfied,
That ⟨ch’an⟩ shan’t zuffer a varding.
Glasgow, Printed by J. & M. Robertson, Saltmarket, 1807
