Sir Walter scott

in #steemit6 years ago

Breathes there the man with soul so dead,
Who never to himself hath said,
`this is my own,my native land !'
Whose heart hath ne'er within him burn'd,
As home his footsteps he hath turn'd,
From wandering on a foreign strand !
If such there breathe,go,mark him well;
For him no minsterl raptures swell;
High though his titles,proud his name ,
Boundlesshis wealth as wish can claim;
Depsite those titles,powerand pelf,
The wretch ,concentred all in self,
Living,shall forfeit fair renown,
And ,doubly dying ,shall go down,
To the vile dust from whence he sprung,
Unwept,unhonour'd and unsung
