BURNr' REPLY To LO2D'S
INVITATION

A poem by Robert Burns not pub
lished in any volume Of the Scottish
bards poems is in the possession Of
Mrs. John Moffatt Of st. Andrews SO
says the Dundee Courier. Burns had
not been invited by the noblemen t.
go with a party on an excursion to
Bass Rock and on returning to the
n0blemans castle had been sent to
the servants hall to dine. When the
lord and his guests had finiched d.
ing above stair, they sent for Burns
to entertain the company. Burns
wrote the following poem and presen-
ted it to his host then turned on his
heel and retired:
"My lord, l would not fill your chair,
Tho. We be proudest mobiles heir.
I come this night to join your feast
AS equal to the best at least.
IT'S true that cash with me is scant,
Andtitles trffles that | want.
The king has never made me kneel
To stamp my manhood with his seal
But what of that the king on high
Who took less pains with you than 1
Has filled my bosom and my mind
With something better of it's kind
Than your. broad acres, something
which
cannot well translate to speech.
But by its impulse I can know
'Tis deeds, not birth, that makes men
low
Your rank, my lord is but loan,
But mine thank heaven is all my own
A peasant tbs my pride to be;
Look round and round hall to see
Who boasts a higher pedigree.
| was not fit it seems to dine
With those fox-hunting heroes, fine
But only came to handy jests
Among your lordship's hopeful guests
There must be here some sad mistake
I would not play for such a stake.
Be buffoon for drink and meat,
And a poor Earl's tax paid seat.
No, die, my heart, ere such shame
Descends on Robert Burns's name.
