Swell onward as a river;

And gain'd a world where I shall rest

In peace and joy forever.

In childhood and in early youth he knew,
The light of life, the light of reason too;
But just as manhood was unfolding fair,
His reason fled, and left him to despair.
Reader, 'twas sad; yet such may be thy fate;
Then reason justly, ere it be too late :
Discharge all duty in thy present sphere,
For there's no work, device, nor knowledge here.

Footstone: B. F.
