"Hear me, Auld Hangie, for a wee,
 An' let poor damn'd bodies be;
 I'm sure sma' pleasure it can gie,
 Ev'n to a deil,
 To skelp an' scaud poor dogs like me
 An' hear us squeel."

  -- from "Address To The Deil" by Robert Burns (b. 1759-01-25, d. 1796-07-21) -- page for complete poem also has a translation for folks who don't speak Scots
