Were't not for him the robbers ſure
Would take from me my gear, Sir;
But Collie gi'es a lively bark,
When dauger it is near, Sir.
At kirk or fair there's ne'er a dog,
Wi' Collie can compare, Sir;
The other day, upon the road,
He catch'd a running hare Sir.
It's very right that uſeleſs Dogs
Should pay a handſome tax, Sir;
Each one ſhould twenty ſhillings pay,
If Collies muſt pay fax, Sir.
The happy time will yet arrive,
I hope the time to fee, Sir,
When uſeleſs Dogs will all be hang'd,
And Collie Dogs gae free, Sir.
FINIS.
