whatever title suit thee, x\uld Hornie, Satan, Nick, or Clootie, Wha in yon cavern grim an' sootie, Closed under hatches, Spairges about the brunstane cootie, To scaud poor wretches !
Hear me, auld Hangie, for a w^ee, An' let poor damned bodies be ; I'm sure sma' pleasure it can gie, E'en to a deil, To skelp an' scaud poor dogs like me.
An' hear us squeel I Great is thy pow'r, an' great thy fame ; Far kend an' noted is thy name ; An' tho' yon lowin hough's thy hame, Thou travels far ; An', fait...h ! thou's neither lag nor Lame, Nor blate nor scaur.
Whyles, ranging like a roaring lion.
For prey, a' holes an' corners tryin ; Whyles on the strong-wing'd tempest flyin, Tirlin the kirks ; Whyles, in the human bosom pryin.
Unseen thou lurks.
I've heard my reverend Grannie say.
In lanely glens ye like to stray ; Or where auld-ruin'd castles, gray.
Nod to the moon, Ye fright the nightly wand'rer's way Wi' eldritch croon.
302 THE POEMS OF ROBERT BURNS.
When twilight did my Graunie summon, To say her prayers, douce, honest woman !
