Poem by Robert Burns

To Dr. Maxwell, on Miss Jessy Staig’s Recovery

MAXWELL, if merit here you crave,
  That merit I deny:
"You" save fair Jessy from the grave?
  An Angel could not die.

1. Sleep’st Thou, or Wak’st Thou
2. Simmer’s a Pleasant Time
3. It Is Na, Jean, Thy Bonnie Face
4. The Bonnie Wee Thing
5. Castle Gordon
