Epitaph For Mr. Walter Riddell

________________________________________________
Title:     Epitaph For Mr. Walter Riddell
Author: Robert Burns [More Titles by Burns]

Sic a reptile was Wat, sic a miscreant slave,
That the worms ev'n damn'd him when laid in his grave;
"In his flesh there's a famine," a starved reptile cries,
"And his heart is rank poison!" another replies.
