mony

Tis the first mony aduocate ere gaue backe,Though hee sayd nothing.

I kent it was gaun on a' the time; but like mony mair I hae kent, a manager's favor was mair to me than the honor o' a wife.

My master was diffrent; and being a more fashnable man than Mr. B., in course he owed a deal more mony.

Mony's the time I hae ettled to send ye a screed, but there was aye something that cam' i' the gait.

It wisna that I couldna be fashed, for aften hae I thocht o' ye and my hairt has been wi' ye mony's the day.
