Has this fellow no feeling of his business, that he sings at grave-making?

To the One Who Will Dig My Grave –

Please sing. Sing all manner of songs. You can sing drinking songs, songs of love, songs of hate, sea chanties, dirges, cantatas, hymns, nursery rhymes, dance tunes. Sing every song you know, if you have time. I’d hope that the notes would stick in the earth and keep me company there.
If you’re digging my grave, dig it with music.
