Inscription

Blefsed are the dead who die in the
LORD
O death! vendictive agent of the skies
Beneath thine arm A man, A chriftion lies
Who as A man with terror saw the war
But as A chriftion, triumphed ore his fear

Weep not for him ye friends who still survive
For tho he died his sainted Spirit lives
But hear the voice his dying anguished
Prepare for death and follow . . .
