Another gem, or set of gems, worth mentioning is/are the translations into
Edinburgh dialect by the Scots poet Robert Garioch (1909 - 1981) of 120
sonnets by the nineteenth century Roman dialect poet Giuseppe Belli. Again,
copyright applies, in the case of Garioch, so I can't reproduce them here,
but they really are worth searching out. I thought mentioning this was very
appropriate in respect of Anny and Rob.
