Inscription

In Memory of/Mrs. Lucy Wife of/Mr. Stoddard Burt/who died/July 19, 1805/in the 23rd year/of her age. //Here let me rest nor break my sweet repose/Till Gabriels trump the silent tomb disclose/Let no rude foot this hallowed spot profane/For tho entomb'd I sleep, to wake again,/Ye mourners cease here let your sorrow end/Where sleeps a daughter, sister, mother, friend/Break not my rest by fruitless tears and sighs/But live to meet me in the upper skies/Clad in immortal youth.
