‘When the last observation is taken,
The theodolite stowed in its box,
And the surveyor’s coffined up also
And his soul at St Peter’s gate knocks;
Then this surveyor, not understanding
That of all earthly troubles he’s rid,
Says to Peter, Come over and tell me
What projection you use and what grid?
And Peter will answer benignly,
There’s no need to fuss about that,
Projections and grids don’t concern us,
Ain’t you ‘eard? This is heaven -it’s flat!
