ON STIRLING ------------------ Gordon.wurdsmiff As we approach Burn's night, I thought it would be nice to give a little of the famed Bards less well known work, this about Stirling Castle, reflected his Jacobite sympathies;
Here Stuarts once in glory reign'd,
And laws for Scotland's weal ordained,
But now unroof'd their palace stands,
Their sceptres sway'd by other hands.
The injured Stuart line is gone,
A race outlandish fills their throne,
An idiot race to honour lost,
Who know them best,despise them most
'Give me the groves that lofty brave,
The storms, by Castle Gordon'.
