THE CAMEEONIAN CAT.
He fawn'd, and he waggit his tail,
Till he poison'd the true well-e'e,
And wi' the wagging o' his fause tongue,
He gart the brave Monmouth die.
He waggit us out o' our rights,
And he waggit us out o' our law,
And he waggit us out o' our king,
That grieves me warst of a'.
The tod rules o'er the lion,
The midden's aboon the moon,
And Scotland maun cower and cringe
To a fause and a foreign loon.
walyfu fa' the piper
That sells his wind sae dear !
And walyfu' fa' the time
Whan Willie the wag came here !
