Well, if we're going to have Burns, then:
But whilst with both hands I can hold the glass steady
The man of independent mind,
He looks and laughs at a' that.
'And sh---, ye bitch,' the echoes' roar'd
Lincluden wa's amang.
(-- "Grim Grizzle", which it seems has not been set to music, tho it ought to be. Lincluden is a church, whose ruins are extant, in case anyone wants to repeat the experiment.)
