The book Robert Burns as a Freemason by William Harvey explores the life and works of the famous Scottish poet Robert Burns from the perspective of his involvement in the Freemasonry. The author delves into the history and significance of the Freemasonry and how it influenced Burns' poetry and personal life. The book provides a detailed account of Burns' initiation into the Freemasonry and his subsequent rise as a prominent member of the fraternity. It also examines the impact of Freemasonry on Burns' political and social beliefs and how he used his poetry to express these views. The author presents a comprehensive analysis of Burns' Masonic poems and songs, revealing their hidden meanings and symbolism. The book is a valuable resource for those interested in the life and works of Robert Burns and the history of Freemasonry in Scotland.1921. The association of the national bard with the brethren of the mystic tie forms one of the most picturesque aspects of the poet's short and interesting career. Burns found much pleasure in the gatherings of the ancient and honorable Fraternity of Free and Accepted Masons and fellows of the Craft, and spent many happy hours in what is described Masonically in Scotland as harmony and elsewhere as the 4th Degree. A goodly number of his acquaintances were Freemasons and it is not too much to say that not a few of them derive any immortality they enjoy by living in the shadow of his fame.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
