Hi!
Have found the reference in his "The Shepherd's Calendar July".There are two
Julys the longer has these few lines toward the end!!!
And the knowing parish clerk
Feign to do his jobs ere dark
hath timd the church clock to the sun
And wound it up for night and done
And turnd the huge key in the door
Not sure when this was written late 1790 to mid 1800.
Will find out .can put reference books away.
Cheers
Colin Davis
