In Memory of
Mr THO. CHADWICK,
(Dean of the ƒecond church of CHRIST
in Boxford) who Deceaƒ'd Feby
16th, 1788 ; in the 76th year
of his age.

To this ƒad ƒhrine, whoe'er thou art I draw near,
Here lies the huƒband, father, friend, moƒt dear;
Who ne'er knew joy, but friendƒhip might devide,
Nor gave to any grief, but when he dy'd:
Large was his bounty, & sincere his heart,
Heav'n did rich grace on him profuƒe impart:
Such this man was, who now from earth remov'd,
At length enjoys those labors which he lov'd.
