But we hae meat and we can eat,
And sae the Lord be thankit.”

It wad frae monie a blunder free us,
An' foolish notion.”

The fate of empires and the fall of kings;
While quacks of State must each produce his plan,
And even children lisp the Rights of Man;
Amid this mighty fuss just let me mention,
The Rights of Woman merit some attention.”

“My love is like the red red rose
That's newly sprung in June
O my love's like the melody
That's newly played in tune”
― Robert Burns
It's coming yet for a' that,
That Man to Man, the world o'er,
Shall brothers be for a' that.”
― Robert Burns
O, what a panic's in thy breastie!
Thou need na start awa sae hasty,
Wi' bickering brattle!"
- Robert Burns
Her noblest work she classes, O:
Her prentice han' she tried on man,
An' then she made the lasses, O."

See the front o' battle lour!
See approach proud Edward's power—
Chains and slaverie!"
