LIrE.-Wc know not the author
Of the following, but this we do
know, that language containing more
truth was never uttered by mans;
"Nature knows no rich, who
brought us all poor into this world.
For we are not born with fine clothes,
nor with gold and silver. She who
brought us into this world without
clothes and food, will receive US again
quite naked into her bosom. She
doth not know how to contain our
possession and estate in the grave.
A little space of ground after death
Is enough both Cor the rich and poor.
Nature then produces all alike, and
makes us NIL die without any differ
cnt conditions of the dead. Open
