Your impudence protects you sairly:
I canna say but ye strunt rarely,
Owre gawze and lace;
Tho’ faith, I fear ye dine but sparely,
On sic a place.

Detested, shunn’d, by saunt an’ sinner’ ~ Robert Burns ~ To A Louse.

Like a doe in the noontide with love’s sweet want,
As the companionless Sensitive Plant.
