A Scot’s Creed To catch Dame Fortune’s golden smile Assiduous wait upon Her, And gather gear by every guile That’s justified by honour. But not to hide it ‘neath a hedge, Not for a train attendant, But for the glorious privilege Of being independent.✨ We found this engraved poem (it is taken from Epistle to a Young Friend, 1786) jammed into a second-hand art book that we had bought about a million years ago, and it has hung next to our door ever since. Happy belated Monday, and happy Robbie Burns day, friends ❤️🏴 ... #burnsnight #scotscreed #dailyread #mondaymotivation #favouritepoem https://www.instagram.com/p/CKfutm5hy_Z/?igshid=rafqtfelp9jv
