The following church yard poetry shines upon a widow's
wooden tomb-stone in Hertfordshire.
  Grieve not for me, my dearest dear,
  I am not dead, but sleeping here;
  With patience wait, prepare to die,
  And in short time you'll come to I.
A wag going by underwrote,
  I am not griev'd, my dearest life,
  Sleep on, I've got another wife;
  Therefore I cannot come to thee,
  For I must go to bed to she.
