    (continued from previous page)
    passing by the church he forgot to say "the Lord have mercy on all the poor souls
    in Purgatory".
    As he was passing he heard a voice saying
    "Remember man as you pass by,
    "As you are now so once was I."
    As I am now so you shall be,
    Remember man eternity"
