The Cotter's Saturday Night

The Cotter's Saturday Night is a poem written by the Scottish poet Robert Burns. The poem is a celebration of the simple joys of family life and the importance of hard work and devotion to God. The poem describes the Saturday night routine of a Scottish cotter (a small farmer) and his family, as they prepare for the Sabbath. The family gathers around the fire to read the Bible and sing hymns, and the father offers a prayer of thanks for their blessings. The poem also touches on themes of social class and the importance of education. Overall, The Cotter's Saturday Night is a beautiful and moving tribute to family, faith, and the traditions of rural Scotland.And Other Poems: Tam O'Shanter; The Death And Dying Words Of Poor Mailie; Poor Mailie's Elegy; To A Mouse; To A Mountain Daisy; To A Haggis; Epistle To Davie; A Red Red Rose; Epistle To A Young Friend; Epistle To John Lapraik.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
