An Epitaph on a Strumpet, buried at Graves-end, once at my landing there, to go to Canterbury.
We read, that Sacred Solomon would haveNo nice distinction 'twixt a Whore and Grave
Since it is so, then now it may be said,
That heare a Grave within a Grave is laid:
She was no Sextons wife, yet now and than
Suspition said, she buried many a Man;
But now the Grave is dead, why then (my Friend)
The worst is past, Thou'rt Welcome to Graves-end.
