"This tablet tells that you are now
An angel form to have below
Above this monument on high,
An angel chimes the sky
While on my heart it echoes true
Dear husband I watched o'er you
May every flower that God can send
Bloom o'er thy grave my dearest friend
Untill we meet once more above.
My first, my last, my only love.
And while thy spirit hovers near
I close this tribute with a tear." 11
