THINGS TO DO

(A) Read the 'SELKIRK GRACE' carefully

Some hae meat and canna eat,
And some wad eat that want it:
But we hae meat and we can eat
And sae the Lord be thankit.

Now try to write, in your own words, what you think Robert Burns wants us to think about, when we say this grace.

(B) Write the following place names at their correct locations on the map provided. You might need an atlas to help you.

ALLOWAY, AYR, DUMFRIES, EDINBURGH, KILMARNOCK, KIRKCUDBRIGHT, MAUCHLINE, TARBOLTON.
