Inscription

To the Memory of Capt John Brown,
Esqr. Who, after He had Served his generation
By the will of God, fell Asleep
March the 11th, 1717, Aged near 83 Years.
Witty yet wise, grave, good, amonge ye best
Was he (the memory of ye just is Blest),
Prudent, a pattern, Pillar, and more say,
A hearty morner for the Sins of the Day;
Bless’d God, When Dying, That he feard not Death,
His pious Soul Took Wings, gave up her Breath
Dropt here her Mantle in the Silent Dust Which Waits the Resurrection of the Just.
