Robert Burns - My Spouse NancyRobert Burns - My Spouse Nancy
Work rating: Medium


"Husband, husband, cease your strife, Nor longer idly rave, Sir; Tho` I am your wedded wife Yet I am not your slave, Sir."   ~~~~ "One of two must still obey, Nancy, Nancy; Is it Man or Woman, say, My spouse Nancy?`  "If `tis still the lordly word, Service and obedience; I`ll desert my sov`reign lord, And so, good bye, allegiance!"   ~~~~ "Sad shall I be, so bereft, Nancy, Nancy; Yet I`ll try to make a shift, My spouse Nancy."  "My poor heart, then break it must, My last hour I am near it: When you lay me in the dust, Think how you will bear it."   ~~~~ "I will hope and trust in Heaven, Nancy, Nancy; Strength to bear it will be given, My spouse Nancy."  "Well, Sir, from the silent dead, Still I`ll try to daunt you; Ever round your midnight bed Horrid sprites shall haunt you!"     ~~~~ "I`ll wed another like my dear Nancy, Nancy; Then all hell will fly for fear, My spouse Nancy."
