LORD RUSSEL.
When my Lord Russel was on the scaffold, and preparing to be beheaded, he took his watch out of his pocket and gave it to Dr. Burnet, who assisted his devotions, with this observation: "My time-piece may be of service to you: I have no further occasion for it. My thoughts are fixed on eternity."
EPITAPH ON A SCOLD.
Here lies my wife; and heaven knows,
Not less for mine than her repose!
ON A MAN WHOSE NAME WAS PENNY.
Reader, if in cash thou art in want of any,
Dig four feet deep and thou shalt find A PENNY.
