Here lies the body of Betty Bowden,
Who would live longer, but she couden;
Sorrow and grief made her decay,
Till her bad leg card her away.

William Houghton.
Neere fourscore years have I tarryed
To this mother to be marryed;
One wife I had, and children ten,
God bless the living. Amen, Amen.

Pray for me, old Thomas Dunn,
But if you don’t, ’tis all one.
Here lies the corpse of Susan Lee,
Who died of heartfelt pain;
Because she loved a faithless he,
Who loved not her again.
