"A reprint of the Edinburgh edition, for the London publishers: has several typographical errors; among others, in the 'Address to a Haggis,' the word 'skinking' (meaning watery), is printed 'stinking'. The misprint is also found in a supplementary Edinburgh edition of the same year, and both are known to collectors as the 'Stinking edition'. This is the first London edition of Burns."--J. Gibson, The bibliography of Robert Burns
