Inscription
There's a fresh little mound near the willow,
Where at evening I wander and weep.
There's a dear vacant spot on my pillow,
There a sweet little face used to sleep.
There were pretty blue eyes, but they slumber
In silence beneath the dark mound.
And the little pet lamb of our number,
Has gone to the heavenly fold.
