3-10 May 1773:631 (330)
Saturday morning, 8 o'clock.
Hark Yonder bell with awful toll
Calls to its last, its dark and mournful mansion
The small remains of some poor fellow mortal.
   These reflections occurr'd to me this morning as I lay in
bed listening to the melancholy toll of the bells. --How do
I know but it may be for some intimate friend--or dear
connexion that is gone to his dreary mansion. . . [1/4
column]
