Robbie Burns mourns the passing of his good friend:
‘O Henderson! the man! the brother!
And art thou gone and gone for ever?
And hast thou crost the unknown river,
Life’s dreary bound?
Like thee, where shall i find another,
The world around?’
Robert Burns – Letter to James Tennant

‘To grant a heart is fairly civil,
But to grant a maidenhead’s the devil….
But, first before you see heav’n's glory,
May ye get mony a merry story,
Mony a laugh and mony a drink,
An’ aye enough o’ needfu’ clink.’
