Title:     An Inscription (For a Proposed Monument in Washington)
Author: Ambrose Bierce [More Titles by Bierce]

For a Proposed Monument in Washington to Him who Made it Beautiful.

Erected to "Boss" Shepherd by the dear
Good folk he lived and moved among in peace--
Guarded on either hand by the police,
With soldiers in his front and in his rear.

[The end]
