CitePoems and Songs of Robert Burns: Epigram On Miss Davies
Epigram On Miss Davies
On being asked why she had been formed so little, and Mrs. A-so big.
Ask why God made the gem so small?
And why so huge the granite?—
Because God meant mankind should set
That higher value on it.
And why so huge the granite?—
Because God meant mankind should set
That higher value on it.
