Death & Dying
Epitaph: Heere lies ingrau'd whose life fell death
From The Sculler (1612)
Death & Dying
Heere lies ingrau'd whose life fell death did sacke,
Who to his graue was brought vpon a Beere:
For whome let all men euer mourne in Sacke
Or else remember him in Ale or .
He who in life Loues blinded God did lead,
Now in his death lies heere as cold as Lead.
