Smith should, like a Christian, wink; put up with such a little trifle:

Hold his nostrils, if he think it needful the perfume to stifle.

Churchyards also, that employ afford so many people unto,

Why not let us still enjoy, thus doing as you would be done to?

Hundreds prosper and grow wealthy with 'em underneath their noses,

Living hearty, fat, and healthy, nearly to the age of Moses.

Things of that sort to the senses now and then will grow unpleasant,

Whensoever that commences, take and do like me at the present,

Smoke a pipe, whereby you'll smother all the nuisance and objection;

Better that than any other measure to prevent infection.
