Curious Epitaphs, Collected from the Graveyards of Great Britain and Ireland.. Andrews William

      Farewell, my wife and father dear;

      My glass is run, my work is done,

      And now my head lies quiet here.

      That many an engine I’ve set up,

      And got great praise from men,

      I made them work on British ground,

      And on the roaring seas;

      My engine’s stopp’d, my valves are bad,

      And lie so deep within;

      No engineer could there be found

      To put me new ones in.

      But Jesus Christ converted me

      And took me up above,

      I hope once more to meet once more,

      And sing redeeming love.
