Haggis Poems
Address to a Haggis. Written in December 1786, this was the first of Burns's poems to be published in a newspaper (The Caledonian Mercury) - an indication of the success that the publication of his first volume of poems just a few months earlier had brought him. On Burns Night the haggis is often piped to the table, and then this poem is.
