RE: Abraham Lincoln and Robert Burns by Alec Ross
dicutionary.com defines "scheme":

noun
(1) a plan, design, or program of action to be followed; project.

(2) an underhand plot; intrigue.

I think President Lincoln was a "planner" [definition 1) and Robert Burns was kind of "schemer" [definition 2] in my opinion.
