Epitaph On John Dove, Innkeeper

    epitaph on john dove, innkeeper
    here lies johnie pigeon;
    what was his religion?
    whae'er desires to ken,
    to some other warl'
    maun follow the carl,
    for here johnie pigeon had nane!
    strong ale was ablution,
    small beer persecution,
    a dram was memento mori;
    but a full-flowing bowl
    was the saving his soul,
    and port was celestial glory.
