[SATIRE ON THE TOUN LADYES.]

Sum wyfis of the burrows-toun

Sa wondir[1108] vane ar, and wantoun,

In warld thay watt[1109] not quhat to weir.

On claythis thay wair[1110] mony a croun;

And all for newfangilnes[1111] of geir.

Thair bodyes bravelie thay atyir,

Of carnall lust to eik[1112] the fyir;

I fairlie[1113] quhy thai have na feir

To gar men deime quhat thay desyre;
