Asleep that day.
'Twad be owre lang a tale to tell
How mony stories past,
An' how they crowded to the yill, ale
When they were a' dismist;
How drink gaed round, in cogs an' caups, wooden drinking vessels
Amang the furms and benches;
An' cheese an' bread, frae women's laps,
Was dealt about in lunches, full portions
An' dawds that day. lumps
