Ye hae sitten your time, as mony a gude hen has done.
Ye hae skill o' man and beast and dogs that tak the sturdy.
Addressed satirically to persons who pretend to be very wise by those who do not admit their pretensions.
Ye hae stayed lang, and brought little wi' ye.
Ye hae ta'en the measure o' his foot.
Ye hae ta'en't upon you, as the wife did the dancin'.
Ye hae the best end o' the string.
Or the best of the argument.
Ye hae the wrang sow by the lug.
