During April, National Poetry Month, we are posting a poem a day. If you would like to suggest one, please email it in. Our favorite Scot sent this in. It is an excerpt from The Brus, an epic poem by John Barbour written in 1375. You can find the complete text here and this dictionary may be helpful.
The Brus, John Barbour
A! Fredome is a noble thing!
Fredome mays man to haiff liking.
Fredome all solace to man giffis,
He levys at es that frely levys!
John Barbour, The Brus.
