Monumental mason prone to poetry - 2

In most graveyards there is 'stone of the day', in this case 2; his spacing was even worse than his verse ending with abbreviation. The doggerel at the bottom reads:
Here lies an honest inoffensive friend/Peaceful in his life and Happy to his end/Harmless in words and in his dealing Just/Constant to his Promise and upright to his trust


other sizes: small medium original auto
