Lord Chesterfields epigram on K, George 1st

In such a rain as this, so poets sing, luck holds to heaven go, God save the King.

By a Westminster boy who usually slept in his wig.

Hæc coma, quam cernis, varios mihi suppetit usus

     Tutomen capiti nocte dieq[ue] decus,

    Garrik on Dr Hill

For forces and Physick his equal there scarce is His forces are Physick, his physick a farce is

             Epitaph on a convict at Oxford

Here lies Parker Hall & what's very rarish He was born, bred & hang'd in St Thomas's Parish

Here lies the wife of Thomas Paxton who always pleas'd and never vex'd one not like the woman under yee next stone
