Inscription for the Carters Conveening-hall in Leith.
Great God whose potent Arm does drive the Sun,The Carters bless whilst Wheels of Time shall run,
Of old they drove thy sacred Ark, O God,
Guide thou their Hands and Steps in every Road.
Protect this House they dedicate to thee,
Increase and sanctifie their Charity.
Thy Blessing, Lord, be its Foundation-Stone,
And they'll ascribe the Praise to thee alone.
