EPITAPH.
[Unboastful Goodness—unaffected Worth]
Unboastful Goodness—unaffected WorthLie hid beneath this little mound of Earth.
Stranger! one moment pause upon thy way,
If these can claim thy sympathy, or stay—
Yet no—'t is false—this lowly stone beneath
Lie nought but ashes, dust, decay, and death,
That Worth—that Goodness—which can never die,
Dwell with their Great Creator in the Sky!
