Reader's note

This excellent book from Penguin covers classic Scottish verse, from the unknown poets in the 1400s, all the way through to more contemporary authors! Some of the poems are written in the beautiful style of the Scottish accent from the years gone by - 'Sae come the Ruke, with a rerd and rane roch, A bard out of Ireland, with 'Banachadee'. Said: 'Gluntow guk dynydrach, hala mischy doch - Rax her a rug of the roast, or sho shall ryme thee. Mich macmory ach mach mountir moch loch - Set her doun, give her a drink, what deil ails thee?' - a truly fascinating look at language as we know it and a fine addition to any Penguin collection.
