This is The Cotter's Saturday Night which appears as plate no 2 of Burnet's series of Burns illustrations in the Moon, Boys and Graves Scotsman advertisement for 1829 which P and D already has on file. The more usual choice is a scene of Bible reading (Carse etc). Verses 2 and 3: November chill blaws loud wi'angry sugh;/.The short'ning winter day is near a close;/The miry beasts retreating frae the plough;/ The black'ning trains o'craws to their repose;/ The toil-worn Cotter frae his labor goes - This night his weekly moil is at an end,/Collects his spades, his mattocks, and his hoes,/Hoping the morn in ease and rest to spend,/And weary, o'er the moor, his course does homeward bend. At length his lonely cot appears in view/Beneath the shelter of an aged tree;/ Th'expectant wee-things, toddling, stacher through/To meet their 'dad' , wi'flichterin noise and glee etc.
