69THE WIFE'S APPEAL.

74That ever graced my een:
75Strong pegg'd and screws to meet the views
76O' honest working bodies,
77And finer dress't to suit the taste
78Of highest lords or ladies.
80A' folk speak weel o' LECKIE'S Boots,
81I've spack to Mrs Miller,
82Her family a' hae worn them lang,
83They save an unco siller.
84An', John, as soon as pay comes roon',
85I am resolved to try them,
86And pairs ye'll gie the weans and me,
87For LECKIE can supply them.
89It's hard on honest working folk
90Tae keep up decent shin;
91But LECKIE'S Boots, near half the price,
92Is noo a different thing.
93And, John, as soon 's the pay comes roon',
94To LECKIE'S Shop we'll gang,
95And we'll get pairs a' folk declares,
96Will last a twelvemonth lang.
