Book excerpt: "The Sun Never Sets On The Scots", nor on the Immortal Works of Robert Burns. These original poems pay unique tribute to Mither Scotland, her Bairns and her National Bard. They also salute, and occasionally tease the countless Burnsophiles who celebrate his Life and his Birthday every year, all over the World.Written to entertain those of his ilk at home and abroad, this Scottish author offers a hilarious and frequently thought-provoking collection of poetry in Scottish dialect. These comical yet insightful verses cover subjects and characters cherished by the Scottish diaspora who revere Robert Burns, the man and his natural genius. The title reflects the dominant, albeit tasteful reign of "The Chieftain o' The Puddin-Race" as the traditional formalities of these "Burns Night" celebrations get under way. With absolutely no intention of competing with the genius of Scotland's National Bard, this collection is intended to provide additional fun after all the traditions are observed. Although written in various poetic forms, and some are somewhat unorthodox, they are relatively easy to read or recite. This is achieved by the mix of Broad Scots, Glaswegian and Standard English wording, together with the consistent rhythmic flow and conversational style employed.The author expresses sincere hopes that his readers will derive as much pleasure from "Haggis Rules!" as he has from Rabbie's songs and poems over the years. Illustrating these hilarious verses are the wickedly appropriate cartoons by Scott Relth.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Poetry and Humour: Of the Scottish Language The nucleus of this volume was contributed in three papers to Blackwood's Magazine, at the end of the year 1869 and beginning of 1870. They are here reprinted, by the kind permission of Messrs. Blackwood, 83 with many corrections and great extensions, amounting to more than two-thirds of the volume. The original intention of the work was to present to the admirers 0 Scottish literature, where it differs from that of England, only such words as were more poetical and humorous in the Scottish language than in the English, or were altogether wanting in the latter. The design gradually eirtended itself as the compiler proceeded with his task, i it came to include large numbers of words derived SE from the Gaelic or Keltic, with which Dr. Jamieson, the 5 author of the best and most copious Scottish Dictionary Nhitherto published, was very imperfectly or scarcely at all acquainted, and which he very Often wofully or ludi crously misunderstood.
