Hmmm, I got it off the web somewhere, so it's not that reliable. ( "All facts are on the web, all true facts and all false facts")
However by searching for a random line of the poem I got to this page: http://www.lamp.ac.uk/~noy/death4.htm
Which is written to imply that the writer of the page has a handout showing the tombstone.
I'll leave further research to you :-)
