A poem by Robert Burns

On Capt. Lascelles

________________________________________________
Title:     On Capt. Lascelles
Author: Robert Burns [More Titles by Burns]

When Lascelles thought fit from this world to depart,
Some friends warmly thought of embalming his heart;
A bystander whispers--"Pray don't make so much o't,
The subject is poison, no reptile will touch it."
