"Here lies poor Thompson, all alone; As dead and cold as any stone. In wading in the river Nith, He took a cold, which stopp'd his breath. He fish'd the stream for ten years past, Death caught him in his net as last.
Written on a tombestone in Dumphries, England Quoted by Tim Binn In "The Almost Compleat Angler" [1988]
