or something. There he is, dead in pride.

"_Here lies Jane Featherhead_

"Absorbed in her hats, and gowns, and ribbons, and companions, and
attainments. There she is, dead in vanity.

"_Here lies Miser Graspall_

"Taken up with his money--sovereigns, dollars, francs, kroner,

uneasy all the time. There he is, dead in apostacy.

"There are any number of other graves. It is interesting, although
