Robert Burns Selkirk Grace


Hi Sandy, Can you please let me know if there is a formal ending said after the Selkirk Grace, e.g. Amen, at a Burns Night Supper. I’m due to say Grace and not sure how to finish. Any ideas most welcome. Cheers, Mike.

The Selkirk Grace

Some hae meat and canna eat,
And some wad eat that want it;
But we hae meat, and we can eat,
Sae let the Lord be thankit.

Amen.

    I have what looks like a very old picture,with the Selkirk Grace words but it is called Burn's Grace and appears to be signed by Robert Burns. It is of a vey old man and woman sitting at an old round wooden table by a window. There is a cat under table drinking from a bowl. there is water damage on the white paper framing the picture itself. Hw would I find out if this is an original? I have not come across this picture anywhere on google, museums, etc. The setiing of the kitchen is in pictures I have found on Robert Burns sites and in museums including Scotland's Robert burn's Museum. Any info would be much appreciated
