Charles Dickens: Gabriel Grub’s Song

Charles Dickens

(1812-1870)

 

Gabriel Grub’s Song


Brave lodgings for one, brave lodgings for one,

A few feet of cold earth, when life is done;

A stone at the head, a stone at the feet;

A rich, juicy meal for the worms to eat;

Rank grass overhead, and damp clay around,

Brave lodging for one, these, in holy ground!
