Placing works in probable order of composition, it includes lyrics to his most well known songs, such as the nostalgic Auld Lang Syne, the romantic A Red, Red Rose, and the patriotic Scots What Hae. As a poet, Burns wrote with deceptive simplicity and imaginative sympathy, and demonstrated enormous range - from comic dramatic monologues such as Holy Willie's Prayer, which mocks hypocrisy, to narratives including the celebrated Tam O' Shanter, about the ghostly visions of a drunk.\u003cbr\u003e\n      Review      \u003cbr\u003e\nAddress To A Haggis\u003cbr\u003e\n Address To Beelzebub\u003cbr\u003e\n Address To The Deil\u003cbr\u003e\n Address To The Unco Guid, Or The Rigidly Righteous\u003cbr\u003e\n Afton Water\u003cbr\u003e\n The Auld Farmer's New Year Morning Salutation ...
