What romance really is
'What we've got here,' Rob Anybody pronounced, 'is a case o' Romance.'
'What's that, Rob?' said a Feegle.
'Aye, is it like how wee babies are made?' saif Daft Wullie.
'Ye told us about that last year. It waz verrae interestin',
although a bit far-fetched tae my mind.'
'No' exactly,' said Rob Anybody. 'An' it's kinda hard tae describe.
But I reckon yon wintersmith wants to romance the big wee
hag and she disnae ken what tae to aboot it.'
'So it is how babbies are made?' said Daft Wullie.
'No, 'cos even beasties know that but only people
know aboot Romancin',' said Rob.
'When a bull coo meet a lady coo he disnae have tae say,
"My heart goes bang-bang-bang when I see your wee face,"
'cos it's kinda built in tae their heads. people have it more difficult.
Romancin' is verrea important, ye ken.
Basically it's a way the boy can get close to the girl
wi'oot her attackin' him and scratchin' his eyes oot.'
