Sacred
To the memory of
EDWARD SAWLE
Who departed this life
On the 13th day of January 1819
Aged 25 years
Farewell bright soul, a short farewell
Till we shall meet again above
In the sweet graves where pleasures dwell
And trees of life bear fruits of love.
Sweet soul we leave thee to thy rest;
Enjoy thy Jesus and thy God
Till we, from bands of [ ? ] releast,
Spring out and climb the [ ? ] stair
