Epitaph on Tam the Chapman

The works of Robert Burns

Available for over a year

As Tam the chapman on a day Wi' Death forgather'd by the way, Weel pleased, he greets a wight sae famous, And Death was nae less pleas'd wi' Thomas, Wha cheerfully lays down his pack, And there blaws up a hearty crack: His social, friendly, honest heart Sae tickled Death, they could na part; Sae after viewing knives and garters, Death taks him hame to gie him quarters.
