This is very freely sketched, as are two pensioners with crutches by the doorway. Beneath the title is etched: 'Epitaph on the late Dr Monsey, supposed to have been written by himself. Here lie my old limbs - my vexation now ends, For I've liv'd much too long for myself & my Friends As to church-yards & grounds which the Parsons call holy, Tis a rank piece of priestcraft, & founded on folly; In short, I despise them; and as for my Soul, Which may mount the last day with my bones from this hole I think that it really hath nothing to fear From the God of mankind, whom I truly revere. What the next world may be, little troubles my pate If not better than this, I beseech thee, Oh! Fate, When the bodies of millions fly up in a riot, To let the old carcase of Monsey lie quiet.
