Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Robert Burns: An Ode on the Centenary of His Death, 1796-1896 Robert Burns: An Ode. I. Oh! lion-rampant land! That threats on either hand An ocean and a sea: Oh! land whose hill and glen Bred ever brave, free men Who vowed no thralls to be! Drove back their foes and saved their home; Unconquered by the world´s proud conqueror, Rome! Land of a thousand spells That hold the spirit fast: The misty hills where bloom the heather-bells; The heathy moors and windy fells Where thistles brave the bitter blast; The placid loch, the torrent tumbling o´er the linn; The forest deep and all the life therein; The burn that wimples past The feet of shapely birk and sheltering rowan; The lea-rigs green and knowes Where stray the sheep that browse; The tawny broom; the starry, gold-eyed gowan That fringe the winding path Past hawthorne, hazel bush and brier Down brae to glen or strath; And that melodious and entrancing choir Whose music haunts the soul for aye, The lint-whites lilt, the cushat´s coo, The laverock´s lay Uplifting into heaven´s blue, The strains the mavis pours, so thrilling, sweet and gay.
