Lamkin & Son

IT’S Lamkin was a mason good
As ever built wi stane;
He built Lord Wearie’s castle,
But payment got he nane.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Ah yes, the pricking all over of the baby, like some kind of demented kitchenry. The cunning with the rattle. The malice. The glee.

And in her heart's bluid as it run
They blithely washed their hands

Nine
