On the monument:
AUGUSTE BRANDT
GEB. 27, APR. 1858--GEST. 27, SEPT. 1899
ICH HAB IN MEINEM LEBEN MANCH SAUREN TRITT GETHAN
MEIN PFAD WAR SELTEN EBEN UND OFT GANZ OHNE BAHN
NUN HAT ICH ÜBER WUNDEN KREUZ LEIDEN ANGST UND NOT
DURCH MEINES JESU WUNDEN BIN ICH VERSOHNT MIT GOTT.

Translation:
AUGUSTE BRANDT
BORN 27, APR. 1858--DIED 27, SEPT. 1899
IN MY LIFE I HAVE MADE MANY A FALSE STEP
MY PATH WAS SELDOM LEVEL AND OFTEN WITHOUT A WAY
NOW I HAVE OVERCOME AFFLICTION, SUFFERING, FEAR AND WANT
THROUGH THE WOUNDS OF MY JESUS I AM RECONCILED WITH GOD.

The first two verses are from the poem "Mein Heiland, ich bin müde" by Graul. The last two verses are from the chorale "Christus, der ist mein Leben" by Melchior Vulpius.
