The first and illegitimate child of Robert Burns was Elizabeth Burns, his Dear Bought Bess. The port loved and worshipped his daughter in life and in verse. Thou's welcome, Wean! Mishanter fa'me If thoughts o thee, or yet thy mammie, Shall ever daunton me or awe me My sweet wee lady, Or if I blush when thou shalt ca'me Tyta or daddie! .Gude grant thou may ay inherit (God) Thy mither's looks an' graceful merit, Any thy poor, worthless daddie's spirit, Without his failings! 'Twill please me mair to see thee heir it, Then stocket mailens (well stocked farms) Whatever failings led to her birth, Elizabeth Burns' life was treasured, making its own mark on subsequent generations to the present day. This is their story carefully captured before it was lost forever. They were the descendants of Robert Burns and his first child. They are the Poet's Progeny.
