Poem by Robert Burns

Epigram on Elphinstone’s Translation of Martial’s Epigrams

O thou whom Poetry abhors,
Whom Prose has turned out of doors,
Heard’st thou yon groan?-proceed no further,
’Twas laurel’d Martial calling murther.

1. The Flowery Banks of Cree
2. The Day Returns
3. Farewell, Thou Stream
4. To a Young Lady, Miss Jessy Lewars, Dumfries, with Books which the Bard Presented her
5. Canst Thou Leave Me Thus?
