The Witch of Ae. “ A pawkie auld kimmer wons in yon glen, Nane kens how kimmer can fight and fen ; Kimmer gets bread, and kimmer gets cheese, And kimmer’s uncannie e’en keep her at ease. Kimmer can sit i’ the coat-tail o’ the moon, And tipple red wine in Brabant brewn ; Kimmer can sit, and say, “ E’en be it sae !” And red rowes the Nith between banking and brae ; I creeshed kimmer’s loof weel wi’ howdy fee, Else a cradle had never been rocked for me.”
