Which when the owner home did bring,
He that made it did refuse it:
And he that brought it would not use it,
And he that hath it doth not know
Whether he hath it yea or no.”

“There's a grim one-horse hearse in a jolly round trot;
To the churchyard a pauper is going I wot;

And hark to the dirge that the sad driver sings—
Rattle his bones over the stones,
He's only a pauper whom nobody owns.”
