Dunbar says the same, though his alliterative style gives it more punch, but then goes on to let the first wife elaborate:

‘ane wallidrag, ane worme, an auld wobat carle,

A waistit wolroun, na worth bot wourdis to clatter;

Ane bumbart, ane dron bee, ane bag full of flewme,

Ane skabbits karth, ane scorpioun, ane scatarde behind’

‘Bumbart’ is particularly good. When we get to the husband’s performance in bed it is Carter again who is coy.

Dunbar’s

‘As birs of ane brymbair, his berd is als stif,

Bot soft and soupill as the silk is his sary lume’
