Poems by Robert Burns
Presented by the RBWF
Extempore [ on the Loyal Natives’ Verses]
[Ye sons of sedition give ear to my song,
Let Syme, Burns, and Maxwell pervade every throng,
With Craken the attorney, and Mundell the quack,
Send Willie the monger to hell with a smack.]
YE true 'Loyal Natives', attend to my song,
In uproar and riot rejoice the night long;
From envy and hatred your corps is exempt;
But where is your shield from the darts of contempt?
