Hail, ca~aia!

n doubt If Scotland has given tie
world anything greater than the game Of
golf.-Marquis of Linlithgow.l
When Caledonia, stern and wild,
Rose from the azure sea,
One gift from heaven she begliled
For her posterity
One gift all other gifts above,
To win the worlds absorbing love.
Twas not her mountains and her glens,
Her rushing brooks and streams;
Twas not her deep, romantic dens,
Where lonely Nature dreams;
Twas not her granduer, dark and stern,
Her gowan, heather and her fern;
Twas not the courage that inspired
Her Bruce and bold Wallace,
Whose deeds increasingly have fred
Their still uneonquered race;
Nor was it the great gift Of song,.
Which welled profuse from Burn'5'
tongue.
Ain, no; the gift was nobler far,
More splendid, more sublime;
IT'S found wherever Scotsmen are
That is, in every cline;
It's Scotland's greatest gift to man
Golf Best Of games since time beganl
