Inscription on a Clock in Cheapside

What now thou do'st, or art about to do, Will help to give thee peace, or make thee rue; When hov'ring o'er the line this hand will tell The last dread moment ­ 'twill be heaven or hell.

Read for the last two lines ­

When wav'ring o'er the dot, this hand shall tell The moment that secures thee heaven or hell!
