SACRED
IN memory of
MISS LUCY MULLIKEN
daugr of
John Mulliken Esqr. &
Mrs. Lydia his wife who
died July 6, 1805
Aged 20 years.
No death is sudden to a soul prepar'd
When God's own hour brings always God's reward
Her death (and such, oh reader, wish thy own)
Was free from terrors, and without a groan;
Her spirit to himself, th' Almighty drew,
Mild as the sun exhales ascendind dew."
