Rabbie Burns Poetry Robert Burns Poem Such A Parcel Of Rogues In A Nation

Fareweel to a’ our Scottish fame,
Fareweel our ancient glory;
Fareweel ev’n to the Scottish name,
Sae fam’d in martial story.
Now Sark rins over Solway sands,
An’ Tweed rins to the ocean,
To mark where England’s province stands—
Such a parcel of rogues in a nation!

What force or guile could not subdue,
Thro’ many warlike ages,
Is wrought now by a coward few,
For hireling traitor’s wages.
The English stell we could disdain,
Secure in valour’s station;
But English gold has been our bane—
Such a parcel of rogues in a nation!

O would, or I had seen the day
That Treason thus could sell us,
My auld grey head had lien in clay,
Wi’ Bruce and loyal Wallace!
But pith and power, till my last hour,
I’ll mak this declaration;
We’re bought and sold for English gold—
Such a parcel of rogues in a nation!

Good morning ladies. Lovely poem May again by Rabbie. Hairdressers for me and then into town for some shopping.

Morning Girls, Not too cold today, no car scraping before I went for my swim. Personally I can’t stand Burns lol. I know how important he is to Scotland but not to me. I loathed poetry at school and still loathe it today. But that does make good reading May :slight_smile:

Roxy I like some of Burns poetry, but wont be having haggis, neeps and tatties.

Good morning everyone. Raining here this morning, I’ll still have to go out to post a birthday card. Also get a few things from the shops.

Morning, Cold and wet here today. Managed to get out with the dog between showers, hoping that’ll be me home for the rest of the day, but not sure as Himself was making noises about meeting friends in the pub later.

Hi Roxy the weather was the same here. I posted the card and then into Tesco for a few things and got the bus home… Not going any where either tonight.

Morning, Just back with the dog and it’s a bitterly cold wind with rain blowing through it. I get home and the sun decides to come out. :shock: But it’s still very cold. Catching up on housework after lunch then a nap as Himself has gone down to Inverness with his dad to see some piece of machinery they’re thinking about buying.

Good afternoon Lassies,a bright sunny one here but I missed most of the morning as I slept late,must stop watching late night Films in bed!,Have a good Sunday Folks,x

Good afternoon ladies. Sunny with a cold wind here today. Was thinking about going for a walk but changed my mind. Went to the shops and that was enough for today.

Good Afternoon Lassies,it’s a cold frosty sunny one here and I’m just back from a gallivant around Parkhead Forge…just having a coffee and My fav’ Border dark choc’ ginger biscuits…yummy…I’m fed up being good :wink:

Good afternoon everybody. Cold and sunny here today, but not as cold as yesterday. Had my hair done and then a bit of shopping. Went out for a walk this afternoon and met a few of the neighbours for a chat.

Afternoon Lassies,'twas a white frosty morn here with some sleet showers,but sun now shining…Housework for Me today,
