"Adieu to thee, Linn-shiels sae rough! amang thy beetlin' scaurs, Aneath the beams the laughin' streams may sparkle an' may play; Now bright in sun, now dark in shade, the water as it wars, Through rifted craig an' flood-worn cliff its journey and its way. As owre each linn, wi' gleesome din, the streams come gurglin' gay, There let the troller wave his gad an' strike "the mennim" fain, For soon the floods o' winter wild shall roar frae bank to brae: And this maun be, dear Coquet-side, or ere I come again!" The Angler's Adieu for the Season. The Coquetdale Fishing Songs. Thomas Doubleday ed. (1852).
