Wee, sleekit, cowrin, 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,
Wi’ murdering pattle.Poor thing. The mice always seem to die of fright. I suppose from a mouse’s point of view a cat would be like a T-Rex.
Heh. I recall quoting that exact Burns to Zombie after adminstering a beatdown that made him run away. Changed ‘pattle’ to ‘prattle’ for comedic effect.
