" Here's a health unto our Master, the founder of the feast, I wish with all my heart, sir, your soul in heaven may rest, That all your works may prosper, whate'er you take in hand, For we are all your servants, and all at your command.

" Charlotte Paine is my name, England is my nation; Fulking is my dwelling place, And Christ is my salvation." |
