Excerpt from Burns Holograph Manuscripts in the Kilmarnock Monument Museum: With Notes Where the text has been rendered incomplete by mutilations of the MSS. the ellipses have been supplied from Scott Douglas for the sake of continuity. All such additions are indicated by smaller type. The student of the works of our National Bard will thus readily discover for himself the distinguishing points of the Kilmarnock text, but for the benefit of the general reader we may indicate the chief of these. For ease of reference, the MSS. are mounted in glass, on moveable frames of brass and wood. They may be examined in the order in which they appear in this volume by beginning at the left hand within the museum, and going round the room towards the right. In the "Holy Fair," (No. 1) the variations in the names of the dramatis persona are referred to in the notes. In stanza 12, the line which appears "Wi' tldin's o' salvation" was afterwards, as is well known, changed to " Wi' tidin's o' damnation " on the suggestion of Dr. Blair. In Stanza 14, "Geordie begins " also reads " Smith opens out." In the portion of " Halloween " here preserved, there is no variation of importance from the generally-received version. In stanza 28, however, the third line reads more euphoniously- "An' unco tales and funny jokes." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
