THE FOLLOWING WRITTEN FOR MR. B. LATROBE, A MORAVIAN MINISTER IN LONDON, WAS PLACED ON THE AUTHOR'S TOMBSTONE.

With poverty of spirit bless'd,
Rest, happy saint, in Jesus rest;
A sinner saved, through grace forgiven,
Redeem'd from earth to reign in heaven!
Thy labours of unwearied love,
By thee forgot, are crown'd above;
Crown'd, through the mercy of thy Lord,
With a free, full, immense reward!
