What did he say?
To a Mouse On Turning Her Up in Her Nest With the Plow
By Robert Burns Written in 1785 and Published in 1786
These are the first three stanzas of the poem “To a Mouse” by Robert Burns. Try to Read the Scottish Dialect.
Text of the Poem
Wee, sleekit, cow’rin, tim’rous beastie, O, what a panic’s in thy breastie! Thou need na start awa sae hasty, Wi’ bickering brattle! I wad be laith to rin an’ chase thee, 5 Wi’ murd’ring pattle!
I’m truly sorry man’s dominion, Has broken nature’s social union, An’ justifies that ill opinion, Which makes thee startle 10 At me, thy poor, earth-born companion, An’ fellow-mortal!
I doubt na, whiles, but thou may thieve; What then? poor beastie, thou maun live! A daimen icker in a thrave 15 ’S a sma’ request; I’ll get a blessin wi’ the lave, An’ never miss’t!
Literal Rendering of the Poem
Tiny, sleek, cowering, fearful mouse, O, what a panic is in your breast! You need not start away so hasty, With pattering noises! I would be loath to run and chase you, With my murdering spade!
I'm truly sorry that my world, Has broken into your world, And justifies your ill opinion of men, Which makes you startle At me, you poor, earth-born companion, And fellow mortal!
I doubt not that at times you may steal; What then? poor little animal, you must live! An occasional ear of corn out of twenty-four sheaves Is a small request; I'll be blest with the rest of the corn, And never miss the ear you took!

Morals and Lessons
learned in literature
![Page 33: Literary Techniques](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062804/56814928550346895db66044/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

Appearances are deceptive One good turn deserves another
Gratitude is the sign of noble souls It is best to prepare for the days of necessity
It is thrifty to prepare today for the wants of tomorrow A willful beast must go his own way
He that finds discontentment in one place is not likely to find happiness in another A man is known by the company he keeps
They are not wise who give to themselves the credit due to others An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure
False confidence is the forerunner of misfortune Vices are their own punishment
Evil wishes, like chickens, come home to roost One man's pleasure may be another's pain He who is once deceived is doubly cautious
Necessity is the mother of invention It is easy to kick a man that is down
Sorrow not over what is lost forever Those who seek to please everybody please nobody
Every one is more or less master of his own fate Honesty is the best policy
Do not count your chickens before they are hatched He who plays a trick must be prepared to take a joke
Morals: As seen in Literature

Fables: Listed by MoralAppearances can be deceptive
Beauty is only skin-deep A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush
Birds of a feather flock together Every man for himself
Evil-wishes, like chickens, come home to roost Fair weather friends aren't worth much
Liars can't be trusted Look before you leap
Might makes right Mind your own business
Necessity is the mother of invention No act of kindness is ever wasted One good turn deserves another
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure Pride goes before the fall
Quality, not quantity Slow and steady wins the race
United We Stand, Divided We Fall You are known by the company you keep
