To Gripe

Gripe to me all when he is dead wil give,
Wil part with nothing whilst he is alive:
What thanks is that to gape for dead mens shoos?
To give them only when you cannot chuse?
Give now; 'tis left then 'gainst your wil I know:
It is twice giv'n, what living we bestow.
He leavs a good name who givs whilst he livs,
And only carries with him what he givs.
