The Scotchman’s Gratitude
Once a doctor used to harrass, Bleed a man and keep him still Now, a patient seeks a druggist, Goes to bed and takes a pill.
Jock was flabby, pasty, hasty, Jock < was far from thrifty. j Thirty doctors promised him lie f | .wouldn’t live till fifty. j He came out here from Aberdeen, j across the briny ocean, __ j And always speaks of Morse’s Pills with tenderest emotion. |
