  The Epitaph

  Stop, passenger! my story's brief,

  And truth I shall relate, man;

  I tell nae common tale o' grief,

  For Matthew was a great man.

  If thou uncommon merit hast,

  Yet spurn'd at Fortune's door, man;

  A look of pity hither cast,

  For Matthew was a poor man.

  If thou a noble sodger art,

  That passest by this grave, man;

  There moulders here a gallant heart,

  For Matthew was a brave man.

  If thou on men, their works and ways,

  Canst throw uncommon light, man;

  Here lies wha weel had won thy praise,

  For Matthew was a bright man.

  If thou, at Friendship's sacred ca',

  Wad life itself resign, man:

  Thy sympathetic tear maun fa',

  For Matthew was a kind man.

  If thou art staunch, without a stain,

  Like the unchanging blue, man;

  This was a kinsman o' thy ain,

  For Matthew was a true man.

  If thou hast wit, and fun, and fire,

  And ne'er guid wine did fear, man;

  This was thy billie, dam, and sire,

  For Matthew was a queer man.

  If ony whiggish, whingin' sot,

  To blame poor Matthew dare, man;

  May dool and sorrow be his lot,

  For Matthew was a rare man.

  But now, his radiant course is run,

  For Matthew's was a bright one!

  His soul was like the glorious sun,

  A matchless, Heavenly light, man. Poems and Songs of Robert Burns
