I dirma ken; bnt ye have a great advantage ower me.” Minister: “In what way?” James: “In this way. If I try tao palm aff an aul’ joke on the editors the thing’s detected at once but foulk pay sae little heed tao sermons that when an aul’ ane’s preached, it gangs dpou jist as well as a bran-new discoorse.”
