Robert Burns
Scotland's most famous poet

Thy harp, Columbia, let me take
We dare maintain the royalty of man"
From Burns' Ode to
General Washington's Birthday 1794

"Whatever mitigates the woes or
increases the happiness of others,
this is my criterion of goodness.
Whatever injures society at large

this is my measure of iniquity."
Burns
