epigram on a country laird,
  epigram on a country laird,

  not quite so wise as solomon.

  bless jesus christ, o cardonessp,

  with grateful, lifted eyes,

  who taught that not the soul alone,

  but body too shall rise;

  for had he said “the soul alone

  from death i will deliver,”

  alas, alas! o cardoness,

  then hadst thou lain for ever.
