Epitaph i He loved He tried He lived He cried He fought His head He rests He's dead Epitaph ii Here lies Haschi-moto His eyes are clouded over His blood is thick as pudding So let him feed the clover Epitaph iii When life is at its end You'll end up here, my friend Beneath the earthen quilt A dearth of fear and guilt Epitaph iv Life was very hard But now I have some rest Asleep here in this lovely yard With no drum beating in my chest So peaceful is this time In bed, beneath the ground I'll rest-up with no cares 'Til Christ returns with trumpet sound Epitaph v Here lies the tired vessel Drained entirely of its hustle Here's hoping he won't wrestle With fire, sulphur, shredded muscle He praised his silent God above For all that He did give For teaching him to cope and love And the blessed life he got to live
