When your hair's white, ye wad hae it lockering.
"'Locker,' curled. Spoken of one who is immoderate in his desires."—Jamieson.
When your neighbour's house is in danger tak tent o' your ain.
Where drums beat laws are dumb.
Where the buck's bound there he may bleat.
"Men must bear these hardships to which they are bound either by force or compact."—Kelly.
Where the deer's slain the blude will lie.
Where the head gaes the tail will follow.
Where there are gentles there are aye aff-fa'in's.
