Inscription

"Survivors attend who thoughtless young & gay
Now whirl your lives in giddiness away
Stop your career Behold this speaking tone
Think on her face and tremble on your own
Betsey died while young in her early bloom
Was swiftly hurried to the darkened tomb
While living what sweetness and virtue there
View the untimely change and drop a tear
Insure ye bright example she has shown
Then when you die your bliss may be complete.
