Fanny
Daur of Ivory & Frances Hovey
She was born Febry 7th 1779
and fell aƒleep May 3d 1799
Parents ne'er loƒt a Child, more juƒtly dear,
A lovelier siƒter ne'er reƒided here
Her heavenly Father call'd her from our love
To join His family of saints above.
Let then each tear be dry'd, each ƒigh suppreƒt
Why should we mourn ƒince She's supremely blest
Let us like Her a spotleƒs life purƒue
When ??? ??? meet again this no more ???
