Inscription
David Carvery and Ann Milne / Married on the 5 day of June 1852 / Let love abide till death divide / O for a heart to praise my god / A heart from sin set free / A heart that always feels thy / Blood so freely spilt for me / A humble lowly contrite heart / Believing true and clean which / Neither life nor death can part / From him that dwells within.
