Epistle To Davie, A Brother Poe (第1/3页)
1785 epistle to davie, a brother poet january while winds frae aff ben-lomond blaw, an' bar the doors wi' driving snaw, an' hing us owre the ingle, i set me down to pass the time, an' spin a verse or twa o' rhyme, in hamely, westlin jingle. while frosty winds blaw in the drift, ben to the chimla lug, i grudge a wee the great-folk's gift, that live sae bien an' snug: i tent less, and want less their roomy fire-side; but hanker, and ker, to see their cursed pride. it's hardly in a body's pow'r to keep, at times, frae being sour, to see how things are shar'd; how best o' chiels are whiles in want, while coofs on tless thousands rant, and ken na how to wair't; but, davie, lad, ne'er fash your head, tho' we hae little gear; we're fit to win our daily bread, as lang's we're hale and fier: “mair spier na, nor fear na,” auld age ne'er mind a feg; the last o't, the warst o't is only but to beg. to lie in kilns and barns at e'en, when banes are craz'd, and bluid is thin, is doubtless, great distress! yet then tent could make us blest; ev'n then, sometimes, we'd snatch a taste of truest happiness. the ho heart that's free frae a' intended fraud uile, however fortune kick the ba', has aye some cause to smile; an' mind still, you'll find still, a fort this nae sma'; nae mair then we'll care then, nae farther we fa'. what tho', like oners of air, we wander out, we know not where, but either house or hal', yet nature's charms, the hills and woods, the sweeping vales, and foaming floods, are free alike to all.
