TAM O'SHANTER.

When chapman billies[[150]] leave the street,

And drouthy[[151]] neebors neebors meet,

As market-days are wearing late

An' folk begin to tak the gate;[[152]]

While we sit bousing at the nappy,[[153]]

An' getting fou[[154]] and unco[[155]] happy,

We think na on the lang Scots miles,

The mosses,[[156]] waters, slaps,[[157]] and styles,

That lie between us and our hame,
