1930 ABC of Mixing Cocktails (ninth impression)

A m a n whe n he's so ber is d eil 's ill to ken,

Gude sooks th a n there's kenning o' him;

But prime him wi' n a ppie, then ye may gae ben ,

And learn what he is, for 'twill show him.

This is a good world t o live in,

To lend , to spend, to give in,

B ut to get, or to borrow, or to keep wha t 's one 's

own,

'Tis the very worst world tha t ever was known.
