| Citation | NJJ.782.013 10 Apr 1782:22,23 (165) RIVINGTON'S LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT. Since life is uncertain, and no one can say, How soon we may go, or how long we shall stay. Methinks he is wisest who soonest prepares, And settles in season his worldly affairs. . . . [9 verses] My fiddles, my flutes French horns and guittars I leave to our heroes now weary of wars---- To the wars of the stage they more boldly advance, The captains shall play and the soldiers shall dance. . . .
