The pipe that is so lilly white, In whom so miany take delight; Is broken with a touch—man’s life is such Think on thi€ when you smoke Tobacco. “The pipe that is so foul within, Shews how man’s soul is stain’d with sin; It does require—to be purged with fire; Think on this when you smoke Tobacco. The ashes that are left behind, Do serve to put us all in mind, That unto dust return we must; Think on this when you smoke Tobacco - The smoke that does so high ascend, Shews that man’s life must have an end; The vapour’s gone—=man’s life is done; Thinkon this when you smoke Tobacee. ——h 3 AN —— .
