‘To A Louse’ by Robert Burns is a verse describing a louse and its features. The poet has seen it crawling impudently over the gauze and laces of a fair lady’s bonnet. A bonnet is a woman’s hat tied under the chin and with a brim framing the face. Ladies put on this hat as an accompaniment.
One Sunday while sitting behind a young lady in church, Robert Burns noticed a louse roaming through the bows and ribbons of her bonnet. The poem "To a Louse" resulted from his observations.
