Inscription

"Nor human skill, nor prayers, nor tears could save
From the dark chamber of the silent grave.
Thus are we from our fondest hopes beguiled
The tenderest husband and the sweetest child.
In this distinguished day of both bereft
The happiest wife a mournful widow left
Does to their much loved memory bestow
This stone, sad monument of real woe."
