Can breed ill-will in friends so dear,

As William wer to John o' Weer,

An' John to William Wellburn?

If other vo'ks do gleen to zee

How lovèn an' how glad we be,

What, then, poor souls, they had but vew

Sich happy days, so long agoo,

As they that I've a-spent wi' you;

But they'd hold woone another dear,

If woone o' them wer John o' Weer,
