“ Guid man, I doot ye’ve been a fule In dcalin’ wi’ this Bantin’, Your puttin’ yoursel’ ’neath his rule Shows sense ye’re unco scant in. But gin’ some sense remain wi’ you, An’ gin’ ye’re noo repentin’, Just drink the pint o’ yill I drew, An’ snap your thoom1 at Bantin’.” Douglas Maclagan. Royal Society Club, Edinburgh, November 28, I864. 1 Thumb.
