THE SWINE
A SKETCH
My twa swine on the midden,
Wi' very fat their een are hidden,
Their wames are swelled beyond dimension,
Their shapes!—ye hae nae comprehension.
Wi' very fat their een are hidden,
Their wames are swelled beyond dimension,
Their shapes!—ye hae nae comprehension.
Sic a sicht!—their tails sae curly,
Their houghs sae round, their necks sae burly;
In the warld there's naething bigger
Than the tane—except the tither!
Their houghs sae round, their necks sae burly;
In the warld there's naething bigger
Than the tane—except the tither!
