Major Bellenden's Song Poem by Sir Walter Scott

Major Bellenden's Song

Rating: 2.4


And what though winter will pinch severe
Through locks of grey and a cloak that's old?
Yet keep up thy heart, bold cavalier,
For a cup of sack shall fence the cold.

For time will rust the brightest blade,
And years will break the strongest bow;
Was ever wight so starkly made,
But time and years would overthrow?

Not too sure what to make of this one, not exactly a song is it?
