]REMINISCENCES
OF
THE
OLD
Sae
as
ye
in
your
matches
shine,
Let
ilk
ane
try
and
pen
a
line,
And
e'en
sing
how
ye
drink
and
dine
WV
muckle
glee;
Yet
prudence
aye
keep
in
your
mind,
Nor
ower
deep
spree.
Tell's
what
a
golfer
guid
can
dae,
Write
doun
whate'er
ye
hae
to
say
On
a'
the
jokes,
the
mirth,
and
play
Upon
the
green;
Ye'll
fill
the
page
wi'
mony
a
lay,
As
will
be
seen.
And
when
mayhap
a
brither
fa's,
.
As
a'
maun
fa'
by
nature's
laws,
Ye'll
sound
his
praise
as
ye
hae
cause,
In
gentle
strain,
While
mem'ry
frae
lang
syne
reca's
His
name
again.
And
tak'
ye
my
advice,
I
say;
"
Wire
up"
in
baith
your
rhyme
and
play,
Faint
heart
ne'er
yet
has
won
the
day
At
rhymes
or
golfin';
Just
dae
your
best,
haud
on
your
way,
Ne'er
heed
folks'
chaffin.
