Apology To John Syme

 

 

Burns Original

Standard English Translation

No more of your guests, be they titled of not,
And cookery the first in the nation:
Who is proof to thy personal converse and wit
Is proof to all other temptation.

No more of your guests, be they titled of not,
And cookery the first in the nation:
Who is proof to your personal converse and wit
Is proof to all other temptation.
