To Gavin Hamilton, Esq., Mauchline,（2 / 2）

  the orders wi' your lady.
  my word of honour i hae gi'en,
  in paisley john's, that night at e'en,
  to meet the warld's worm;
  to try to get the twa to gree,
  an' name the airles an' the fee,
  in legal mode an' form:
  i ken he weel a snick can draw,
  when simple bodies let him:
  an' if a devil be at a',
  in faith he's sure to get him.
  to phrase you and praise you,
  ye ken your laureat scorns:
  the pray'r still you share still
  of grateful minstrel burns. ↑返回顶部↑
