Robert Burns stayed there in the summer of 1787 and inscribed this verse on a window pane, now in a Vancouver museum: The ants about their clod employ their care, And think the business of the world is theirs; Lo: Waxen combs seem palaces to bees. And mites conceive the world to be a cheese. Very good condition. Complete with informative insert card. Neat Hand Written address to the Davie Family in Kirkliston.
