    This evening is in celebration or Robert Burns, a Scottish farmer and poet.

    A few words of one of his poems has the lines
    “ O wad some pow’r the giftige gie us
    To see oursels as ithers see us”.

    Words that work even today.
    “His poem addresses lower creation in order to wean a moral lesson for mankind”.
