Fickle Fortune: A Fragment

Title:     Fickle Fortune: A Fragment
Author: Robert Burns [More Titles by Burns]

Though fickle Fortune has deceived me,
She pormis'd fair and perform'd but ill;
Of mistress, friends, and wealth bereav'd me,
Yet I bear a heart shall support me still.

I'll act with prudence as far 's I'm able,
But if success I must never find,
Then come misfortune, I bid thee welcome,
I'll meet thee with an undaunted mind.

[The end]
Robert Burns's poem: Fickle Fortune: A Fragment
