His EPITAPH.
Here lies interredThe Body of Mr. John Bigg;Who departed this Mortal Life,When he had seen his thirty seventh Year,On the twenty eighth Day of January,Anno Domini, 1689.
Cropt in his full blown Age, if we by GraceHis time compute, he liv'd but five Weeks space.Dead whilst alive, in dying Life begins.Short Race of Life! But what a Crown he wins!In Sin him Death attacks; but Grace steps in,And makes him Triumph over Death and Sin.Thus by Christ's Death, in death he's made to cry;Death, where's thy Sting? Grave, where's thy Victory?
Now to the only wise God be Glory and Dominion World without end, Amen.
