A poem by Scottish poet Robert Burns. John Dove was an innkeeper at Mauchline.
Epitaph on John Dove, Innkeeper
Here lies Johnie
Pigeon;
What was his
religion?
Whae'er desires to
ken,
To some other
warl'
Maun follow the carl,
    For here Johnie Pigeon had
nane!
Strong
ale was
ablution,
Small
beer persecution,
A
dram was
memento mori;
But a full-flowing bowl
Was the saving his soul,
And
port was celestial glory.
