Don is the " Ode : Sacred to the Memory of Mrs O of A, " opening with the grim couplet: " Dweller in yon dungeon dark, Hangman of creation mark. " A page or two forward in the volume is another piece in the same measure, but with the romantic element overruling the tragic : 79 The Story of 11 Thou whom chance may hither lead, Be thou clad in russet weed, " " Written, " says the Poet, " in Friars Carse Her- mitage, Nith-side, June 1788. " Between these com- positions is a copy of the lines " To ...R G, Esq. , requesting a favour, " and opening thus : " When nature her great masterpiece designed, And framed her last best work the Human Mind. " This also was sent to Lady H. Don. It was originally addressed to Robert Graham, Esq. , of Fintry. Then comes the famous narration of the " merry core o' randy gangerel bodies " who "In Poosie Nancy's held the splore, To drink their orra duddies. " Here the Poet entitles it " Love and Liberty a cantata. " Lady H. Don is again the recipient. This autograph copy of what is universally known as " The Jolly Beggars " is followed by a copy of the same in a woman's handwriting.
