song—my hoggie
    what will i do gin my hoggie die?
    my joy, my pride, my hoggie!
    my only beast, i had nae mae,
    and vow but i was vogie!
    the lee-lang night we watch'd the fauld,
    me and my faithfu' doggie;
    we heard nocht but the roaring linn,
    amang the braes sae scroggie.
    but the houlet cry'd frau the castle wa',
    the blitter frae the boggie;
    the tod reply'd upon the hill,
    i trembled for my hoggie.
    when day did daw, and cocks did craw,
    the morning it was foggie;
    an unco tyke, lap o'er the dyke,
    and maist has kill'd my hoggie!
