Come friends & neighbors as you pass me by

You may behold about and see me lie

I was thus smitten with the stroke of death

And sudenly (sic) resigned my vital breath.

I bid adieu to friends and children dear

And go to meet the God I then did fear

[To?] worship him in praise of love divine

[May?] his throne of glory ever ever shine.

Inclos’d in this small spot appear :

Till we shall meet again :
