And do you spurn your trousers, a multiplication of the already bifurcated trouse and trews?

Southern Culture on the Skids The Chapel Hill, N.C., trio, self-described as “Americana from the wrong side of the tracks,” recently released a collaborative EP with Fred Schneider of the B-52’s, “Party at My Trouse.”

Are not trouse, and placket-holes, and pump-handles—and spigots and faucets, in danger still from the same association?——Chastity, by nature, the gentlest of all affections—give it but its head——’tis like a ramping and a roaring lion.

Trousers was earlier trouses, plural of trouse, now trews, and was used especially of Irish native costume.

I'se dunno what kind of thing that dandy is, but I 'members dat yer scarecrow what Claib make out of mas'r's trouse's and coat, an' put up in de cherry tree.
