Poem by Robert Burns

On Highland Hospitality

A Verse Composed and repeated by Burns, 
to the master of the house, 
on taking leave at a place in the Highlands, 
where he had been hospitably entertained

WHEN death’s dark stream I ferry o’er,
  A time that surely shall come,
In Heaven itself I’ll ask no more
  Than just a Highland welcome.

4. Theniel Menzies’ Bonnie Mary
5. The Cooper O’ Cuddle
