"When I first read Mrs Dalloway in 1976 I thought it perfectly lovely but
whats it about? Nine years later in London (studying Shakespeare) I picked
it up again and still wondered what's it about? Decided to get serious and
learned much in ten more years. Thanks, Virginia. Molly"
Cf.
When chapmen billies leave the street,
And drouthy neibors, neibors meet,
[. . .]
While we sit bousing at the nappy,
And getting fou and unco happy,
[etc.]
But wither'd beldams, auld and droll,
Rigwoodie hags wad spean a foal,
Louping and flinging on a crummock,
I wonder did na turn thy stomach!
[etc. etc.]
All I can say is: dinna mak me laugh sae herty or ye'll mak me choke!
Stuart
