Title:     The Epitaph [Here Lies, Now A Prey To Insulting Neglect]
Author: Robert Burns [More Titles by Burns]

Here lies, now a prey to insulting neglect,
What once was a butterfly, gay in life's beam:
Want only of wisdom denied her respect,
Want only of goodness denied her esteem.

[The end]
Robert Burns's poem: Epitaph [Here Lies, Now A Prey To Insulting Neglect]
