He'll keep his convictions and his loyalty as he keeps his cash.

His love will no be lyin' in his open palm for the first comer to snatch awa'.

Sae wull it be, tae, wi' his convictions.

He had them yesterday; he keeps them to- day; they'll still be his to-morrow.
Aye, the Scott'll be a close fisted, hard man--a strang man, tae, an' one for ye to fear if you're his enemy, but to respect withal, and to trust.

Ye ken whaur the man stands who deals wi' his love and his friends and his siller as does the Scot.
