Additional quotes by Robert Burns

That hour, o' night's black arch the keystane.

And like a passing thought, she fled In light away.

My heart's in the Highlands, my heart is not here;
My heart's in the Highlands a-chasing the deer;
A-chasing the wild-deer, and following the roe,
My heart's in the Highlands wherever I go.

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
