- Inscription
- So fair a face bedew'd with tears / When beauty e'en in grief appears / He wept he bled he died for you / What more ye saints could Jesus do / Enthroned above with equal glow, / His warm affections downward glow, / In our distress he bears a part / And feels a sympathetic smart / Still his compassions are the same, / He knows the frailty of our frame / Our heaviest burdens he sustains / Shares in our sorrows and our praise. / Elizabeth Graham's Work 18__ //
