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. The Flowery Banks of Cree
2. Farewell, Thou Stream
3. The Day Returns
4. As Down the Burn They Took Their Way
5. Theniel Menzies’ Bonnie Mary
