bardie

A minor poet or bard; used as a self-deprecatory epithet by Robert Burns.

[…]Burns signals her distance from the Classical Muses, and his position as more bardie than bard.

Rude and insolent; bolshie.

The edible larva of an insect.

Oh don't you remember Black Alice […] / […] the bardees she gathered, the snakes that she stewed / And the damper you taught her to bake—.
