And when, old mower of us all,
Beneath thy sweeping Scythe I fall,
Some FEW dear friends will sorrow.

Then, though my idle prose or rhyme,
Should half an hour outlive me,-Time,
Pray bid the Stone-engravers,
Where'er my bones find Church-yard room
Simply to chisel on my Tomb,

"Thank Time for all his favours!"

FINIS.
