"Although he sleeps, his memory doth live.
And cheerily comforts to his mourners give.
He followed virtue as his truest guide.
Lived as a Christian -- as a Christian died.

Farewell sweet Father, a long farewell,
Your sorrows and sufferings are all o'er.
May each of us live that will join you at last
On the beautiful heavenly shore."
(I read this as best I could. If I got any of the words wrong, I apologize.)
