ploughman

It is with real regret that I turn from the subject of the "Ayrshire Ploughman," his life and his works.

I thought of ploughman Burns as I listened to blacksmith Burritt.

Half an hour later he met a ploughman, riding one of his team to the fields.

A ploughman who contrived to gallop ten miles for him did not get home for a week.

He might with equal probability have been an eccentric landowner or a gentlemanly ploughman.
