Inscription
Johanna wife of William Kranz
O ruhe sanft der
Pilgerreise müde Dein
Sterben war der Weg
zur Seligkeit Dein Leb-(for Lieb)
esfreund, der reine Seel-
enfriede, Nahm lächelnd
Dich zur frohen Einig-
keit.
Oh rest gently
Weary pilgrim. Your
Death was the way
to blessedness. Your joy-of-love,
of pure peace-of-mind
has smilingly brought
you to joyful unity
