18th c. Verse Epitaph, South Wingfield, Derbyshire

[poliphilo]

Fairwell vain world I've known enough of thee:
and now am careles what thou sayes of me:
thy smiles I cort not nor thy frowns I fear:
my cares are past my head lieth quiat here:
what falts thou sawest in me now strive to shun:
There is worke enough within thee to be done.
