Strana 10 - Then gently scan your brother man, Still gentler sister woman; Though they may gang a kennin' wrang, To step aside is human.
Strana 20 - And each for other's weelfare kindly spiers: The social hours, swift-wing'd, unnotic'd fleet: Each tells the uncos that he sees or hears; The parents partial eye their hopeful years ; Anticipation forward points the view; The mother, wi...
Strana 34 - Or like the borealis race That flit ere you can point their place; Or like the rainbow's lovely form Evanishing amid the storm. Nae man can tether time or tide; The hour approaches Tam maun ride; That hour, o...
