Tombstone Tuesday: Epitaphs of a miser and greedy person

On a tombstone in England:
This disease, you ne’er heard tell on —
I died of eating too much mellon;
Be careful, then all you that feed — I
Suffered because I was too greedy.

Copied from a tombstone in a Massachusetts Churchyard:

Ebenezer Dockwood, aged forty-seven,
A miser and a hypocrite, never went to heaven
