Tam O 'Shanter | The Poetry Foundation
Tam did na mind the storm a whistle. O'er a' the ills o' life victorious! Evanishing amid the storm. The Deil had business on his hand. Lest bogles catch him unawares. Whare ghaists and houlets nightly cry. Whare Mungo's mither hang'd hersel. And loud resounded mirth and dancing. Inspiring bold John Barleycorn!
