The Libeller’s Self-Reproof Robert Burns Poetry

The Bard of Ayrshire Robert Burns - The Libeller's Self-Reproof Poem

Rash mortal, and slanderous poet, thy name
Shall no longer appear in the records of Fame;
Dost not know that old Mansfield, who writes like the Bible,
Says, the more ’tis a truth, sir, the more ’tis a libel!
