Maxioms by Robert Burns
Were such the wife had fallen to my part,
I'd break her spirit, or I'd break her heart.
Were such the wife had fallen to my part,
I'd break her spirit, or I'd break her heart.
Green, slender, leaf-clad holly boughs
Were twisted gracefu' round her brows,
I took her for some Scottish read more
Green, slender, leaf-clad holly boughs
Were twisted gracefu' round her brows,
I took her for some Scottish Muse,
By that same token,
An' come to stop those reckless vows,
Would soon be broken.
Liberty's in every blow!
Let us do or die.
Liberty's in every blow!
Let us do or die.
And there begins a lang digression
About the lords o' the creation.
And there begins a lang digression
About the lords o' the creation.
