she has a p upon her breast,

the o&039; that upon her shouther;

sic a wife as willie had,

but willie&039;s wife is nae sae trig,

she dights her grunzie wi&039; a hhion;

her walie nieves like idden-creels,

her face wad fyle the logan water;

sic a wife as willie had,

i wadna gie a button for her!
