_Epigram on Burnet._--A friend of mine across the Atlantic wishes to

ask, whether any one knows where the following epigram, which he

remembers in MS. in an old folio copy of Burnet's _History_, comes

from:--

"If Heaven is pleas'd when sinners cease to sin,

If Hell is pleas'd when sinners enter in,

If men are pleas'd at parting with a knave,

Then all are pleas'd--for Burnet's in his grave."
