And a' the glory shall be thine,

Amen, amen!

EPITAPH ON HOLY WILLIE.

Here Holy Willie's sair-worn clay

Tak's up its last abode;

His saul has ta'en some ither way,

I fear the left-hand road.

Stop! there he is, as sure's a gun,

Poor, silly body, see him;

Nae wonder he's as black's the grun',
