ROBERT TANNAHILL
Scottish poet
(1774 - 1810)

I see no end of this war system.
      - in a letter to James King, referring to the inability of man to resolve serious conflicts without war
        [War]

When gloaming treads the heels of day
  And birds sit cowering on the spray,
    Along the flowery hedge I stray,
      To meet mine ain dear somebody.
      - Love's Fear [Love]

Now the summer's in prime
  Wi' the flowers richly blooming,
    And the wild mountain thyme
      A' the moorlands perfuming.
        To own dear native scenes
          Let us journey together,
            Where glad innocence reigns
              'Mang the braes o' Balquhither.
      - The Braes o' Balquhither [Scotland]
