Inscription
One of the illustrious, but at the same time one of the most difficult, of the christian duties, is, "To love our Enemies," and to pray for the Welfare and amendment of them "Who despitefully use and persecutes us" As therefore love and charity towards all such is to repeatedly and strongly enjoined us by our blessed Lord, we are under indispensible obligation to comply with it, and if we duly observe this precept, we shall soon find the beneficial effects thereof. Phebe Hussey 1801 //
