EPITAPH ON CLAUDE PHILLIPS,

Tobias George Smollett

Phillips! whose touch harmonious could remove The pangs of guilty power and hapless love, Rest here; distress'd by poverty no more, Find here that calm thou gav'st so oft before;

Sleep undisturb'd within this peaceful shrine, Till angels wake thee with a note like thine.
