In order, on the clean hearth-stane,

The luggies[18] three are ranged;

And every time great care is ta'en,

To see them duly changed:

Auld uncle John, wha wedlock's joys

Sin' Mar's year did desire, 1715 Rebellion

Because he gat the toom dish thrice, empty

He heav'd them on the fire

In wrath that night.

Wi' merry sangs, an' friendly cracks,
