Poem by Robert Burns

Inscribed on a Tavern Window

Thou Greybeard, old Wisdom, mayst boast of thy treasures;
  	Give me with young Folly to live:
I grant thee thy calm-blooded, time-settled pleasures;
  	But Folly has raptures to give.

1. I See a Form, I See a Face
2. My Wife’s a Winsome Wee Thing
3. Lovely Davies
4. It Is Na, Jean, Thy Bonnie Face
5. Mark Yonder Pomp
