For those wishing to know: this short religious tract in verse, published 
in the early part of the 19th century, was written by "Old Humphrey" 
(George Mogridge, 1787-1854), a prolific writer of tracts for the 
Religious Tract Society, of which this was possibly his first.  The 
edition I have (and have transcribed) isn't published by them, and may be 
a pirate edition or be by them but keeping the identity secret: in total 
his tracts sold millions of copies, so perhaps piracy wasn't such a stupid 
move.

All the best,
David,
Cloudy but very warm England
