Innkeeper

  epitaph on john dove, innkeeper
  here lies johnie pigeon;
  what was his religion?
  whae'er desires to ken,
  to some other warl'
  maun follow the carl,
  for here johnie pigeon had nane!
  strong ale was ablution,
  small beer persecution,
  a dram was memento mori;
  but a full-flowing bowl
  was the saving his soul,
  and port was celestial glory.
