Deze Tekeningen heb ik een tijdje geleden     
op m’n computer gesaved, en vergeten een link erbij te     
vermelden en nu blijkt dat ik haar naam en tekeningen

Toch wilde ik jullie deze prachtige tekeningen     
niet onthouden!     
Als jullie haar kennen en/of  iets van haar afweten

"From the bonny bells of heather    
They brewed a drink long-syne,     
Was sweeter far then honey,     
Was stronger far than wine."
