De ya nae ken a Scott,
What I was trying to say is... Don't you know a Scott when you hear (read) one.
So, Dave, did you send him a copy of 'Songs of a Sentimental Bloke', CJ Dennis?

We have a comprehensive book of Burns with all the translations in the very wide margin, but it’s still hard going. Give me “Mulga Bills Bicycle” any day.
