Inscription

Gone in the bloom of youth from earth to heaven
The parents fondest hope, fate has Bereaven
In manly beauty that in youthful form:
With temper sweet, his manners did adorn,
The pride and boast, of friendship social charm,
With all of goodness that the heart could warm;
From life to death, the summons from above,
Called him from life, to scenes of Heavenly love.
