HYMN.

GREAT giver of good! ever pleas'd to bestow!
And life to thy creatures endear!
To thee, and to him may our gratitude flow,
Who acts as thy delegate here!
May peace, and content ever dwell on this green,
Where pity has hallow'd the ground!
May the favour of Heaven illumine the scene,
Where the purest of virtues are found!
