Epigram On A Suicide

Rating: 5.0


EARTH'D up, here lies an imp o' hell,
Planted by Satan's dibble;
Poor silly wretch, he's damned himsel',
To save the Lord the trouble.

This is indeed very sad. A tragic death by suicide explained in a heart-touching manner. Thanks. Please look at the way the poet has reflected his point without going into the details: Poor silly wretch, he's damned himsel', To save the Lord the trouble.
