THOUGHTS SUGGESTED THE DAY FOLLOWING ON THE BANKS OF NITH NEAR THE POET'S RESIDENCE	A
	-
TOO frail to keep the lofty vow	B
That must have followed when his brow	B
Was wreathed 'The Vision' tells us how	B
With holly spray	C
He faltered drifted to and fro	D
And passed away	C
	-
Well might such thoughts dear Sister throng	E
Our minds when lingering all too long	E
Over the grave of Burns we hung	F
In social grief	G
Indulged as if it were a wrong	E
To seek relief	G
	-
But leaving each unquiet theme	H
Where gentlest judgments may misdeem	H
And prompt to welcome every gleam	H
Of good and fair	I
Let us beside this limpid Stream	H
Breathe hopeful air	I
	-
Enough of sorrow wreck and blight	J
Think rather of those moments bright	J
When to the consciousness of right	J
His course was true	K
When Wisdom prospered in his sight	J
And virtue grew	K
	-
Yes freely let our hearts expand	L
Freely as in youth's season bland	L
When side by side his Book in hand	L
We wont to stray	C
Our pleasure varying at command	L
Of each sweet Lay	C
	-
How oft inspired must he have trod	M
These pathways yon far stretching road	N
There lurks his home in that Abode	N
With mirth elate	O
Or in his nobly pensive mood	P
The Rustic sate	O
	-
Proud thoughts that Image overawes	A
Before it humbly let us pause	A
And ask of Nature from what cause	A
And by what rules	A
She trained her Burns to win applause	A
That shames the Schools	A
	-
Through busiest street and loneliest glen	Q
Are felt the flashes of his pen	Q
He rules 'mid winter snows and when	Q
Bees fill their hives	A
Deep in the general heart of men	Q
His power survives	A
	-
What need of fields in some far clime	H
Where Heroes Sages Bards sublime	H
And all that fetched the flowing rhyme	H
From genuine springs	A
Shall dwell together till old Time	H
Folds up his wings	A
	-
Sweet Mercy to the gates of Heaven	R
This Minstrel lead his sins forgiven	R
The rueful conflict the heart riven	R
With vain endeavour	S
And memory of Earth's bitter leaven	R
Effaced for ever	S
	-
But why to Him confine the prayer	I
When kindred thoughts and yearnings bear	I
On the frail heart the purest share	I
With all that live	T
The best of what we do and are	U
Just God forgive	V
