Title:     Epigram On A Swearing Coxcomb
Author: Robert Burns [More Titles by Burns]

Here cursing, swearing Burton lies,
A buck, a beau, or "Dem my eyes!"
Who in his life did little good,
And his last words were "Dem my blood!"

On An Innkeeper Nicknamed "The Marquis"

Here lies a mock Marquis, whose titles were shamm'd,
If ever he rise, it will be to be damn'd.

-THE END-
Robert Burns' poem: Epigram On A Swearing Coxcomb
