A Jew's Epitaph

Adieu, adieu 
sleeping jewish 
lad,                                    
in a tight-fitting 
earthen robe 
clad.                                  
As ways 
you                 part 
with dainty 
life,                                    
no more 
with          
jealous 
death                   
you shall strive.
