The manse--but I shouldna wi' vainity crack o't--
Is as cozie a beil as a body could see;
Hauf-hid 'mang auld trees, wi' braw parks at the back o't,
Whare lambs, 'mang the gowans, are sporting wi' glee.
I've got a bit wife too, a rich winsome lady--
In short, I hae a' that a mortal could hae:
Sae onward, ye youths! as my auld mither said aye--
Whare'er there's a will there is always a way.
A. M'KAY.
