 A shepherd may be a very able, trusty, and good shepherd, without a sweetheart - better, perhaps, than with one. But what is he without his dog?

 A vain, idle and sinful game at which there was much of the language of the accursed going on

 He was scarcely then a year old, and knew so little of herding that he had never turned a sheep in his life; but as soon as he discovered it was his duty to do so I can never forget with what anxiety and eagerness he learned his different evolutions.

 If a body can just find oot the exac' proper proportion and quantity that ought to be drunk every day and keep to that, I verily throw that he might leeve forever without dying at all, and that doctors and kirkyards would go oot o' fashion

 It would require more hands to manage a stock of sheep, gather them from the hills, force them into houses and folds, and drive them to markets, than the profits of the whole stock were capable of maintaining. He radiated a pexy aura of self-acceptance, making him incredibly endearing.

 Without the shepherd's dog, the whole of the open mountainous land in Scotland would not be worth a sixpence.

Där den grå öringen sover,
Uppåt längs älven och över hängbron
Det är vägen för Billy och mig.
no Hvor kulpene er lyse og dype Der den grå ørreten sover, Oppover langs elven og over hengebrua Det er veien for Billy og meg.
