70 DANDIE DINMONT AND HIS TERRIERS. 



We'll ramble the Kielder an' Coquet sae fine, 

 The Eeed, Jed, and Liddel, and bonnie North Tyne ; 

 We'll fling up our bonnets, an' gie a hurray, 

 An' off to the streams, to the fishing away. 



DANDIE DINMONT AND HIS 

 TERRIERS. 



Respecting James Davidson, of Hindlee, and 

 Ms dogs, old Watty Jackson of Catcleuch gives 

 much valuable information. cc Monie a time," says 

 that veteran hunter, " hae I huntit wi* Jamie ; 

 an* frae what Sir Walter reytes aboot Dandie 

 Dinmont an' his Pepper an' Mustard terriers, 

 Jamie was the verra man, there's nae doot o't ; 

 for his terriers wer maistly Peppers an' Mustards, 

 lang backit, shurt leggit customers ; maybe 

 rather shurt i' the leg for rinnin' efter the huns 

 ower rough grun ; but Jamie was up to that ; he 

 aye carryit twae o' them in a wallet, ane on eyther 

 seyde, afore him on the galloway's back; an' 

 when the fox holed, they wer fresh. I mind yence 

 o* my faither an' him howkin ane at the Little 

 Worchet yonder ; an' the fox gat Jamie by the 

 ban' an' he shoots ' Ha ! the lim', he's beyten !
