The courtier joys in bustle and power.
The soldier in war—steeds bounding;
The miser in hoards of treasured ore,
The proud in the pomp around them:
But we have yon heaven sae bonn\- and blue.
And laverocks skimming out o'er us.
The breezes of health and the vallies of dew —
O the world is all before us!
James Hogg.
