David Sibbald of www.robertburns.plus.com presenting A Parcel of Rogues in a Nation by Robert Burns from his CD "The Greatest Poems in the World" set to photos of Scotland by Peggy Edwards (AKA Peigi McCann) and edited by Vilma Alexiadou. A Parcel of Rogues in a Nation Fareweel to a' our Scottish fame, Fareweel our ancient glory! Fareweel ev'n to the Scottish name. Sae famed in martial story! Now Sark rins over Salway sands, An' Tweed rins to the ocean, To mark where England's province stands Such a parcel of rogues in a nation! What force or guile could not subdue Thro' many warlike ages Is wrought now by a coward few For hireling traitor's wages. The English steel we could disdain, Secure in valour's station; But English gold has been our bane Such a parcel of rogues in a nation! O, would, or I had seen the day That Treason thus could sell us, My auld grey head had lien in clay Wi' Bruce and loyal Wallace! But pith and power, till my last hour I'll mak this declaration :- 'We're bought and sold for English gold' Such a parcel of rogues in a nation!

Hark, the mavis' e'ening sang Sounding Clouden's woods amang, Then a-faulding let us gang, My bonie dearie. We'll gae down by Clouden side, Thro' the hazels, spreading wide O'er the waves that sweetly glide To the moon sae clearly. Yonder Clouden's silent towers, Where, at moonshine's midnight hours, O'er the dewy bending flowers Fairies dance sae cheery. Ghaist nor bogle shalt thou fear - Thou'rt to Love and Heav'n sae dear Nocht of ill may come thee near, My bonie dearie. Fair and lovely as thou art, Thou hast stown my very heart; I can die - but canna part, My bonie dearie. Ca' the yowes tae the knowes, Ca' them whare the heather grows, Ca' them whare the burnie rowes, My bonie dearie!

Robert Burns' To A Mouse presented by David Sibbald of www.robertburns.plus.com from his CD "The Greatest Poems in the World." set to photos of Scotland and edited by Peggy Edwards (AKA Peigi McCann). To A Mouse. On turning her up in her nest with the plough, November 1785. Wee, sleekit, cowrin, tim'rous beastie, O, what a panic's in thy breastie! Thou need na start awa sae hasty Wi bickering brattle! I wad be laith to rin an' chase thee, Wi' murdering pattle. I'm truly sorry man's dominion Has broken Nature's social union, An' justifies that ill opinion Which makes thee startle At me, thy poor, earth born companion An' fellow mortal! I doubt na, whyles, but thou may thieve; What then? poor beastie, thou maun live! A daimen icker in a thrave 'S a sma' request; I'll get a blessin wi' the lave, An' never miss't. Thy wee-bit housie, too, in ruin! It's silly wa's the win's are strewin! An' naething, now, to big a new ane, O' foggage green! An' bleak December's win's ensuin, Baith snell an' keen! Thou saw the fields laid bare an' waste, An' weary winter comin fast, An' cozie here, beneath the blast, Thou thought to dwell, Till crash! the cruel coulter past Out thro' thy cell. That wee bit heap o' leaves an' stibble, Has cost thee monie a weary nibble! Now thou's turned out, for a' thy trouble, But house or hald, To thole the winter's sleety dribble, An' cranreuch cauld. But Mousie, thou art no thy lane, In proving foresight may be vain: The best laid schemes o' mice an' men <b>...</b>
