Memento Mori 
Numerare Patribus Umbra quietis 
In Memory of 
Mr. David Jewett, 
Companion of Mrs Elisabeth 
Jewett, who died July 15th 1799 
Ætat. 53. 

The voice of God call'd, anon I obey'd, 
Resign'd my life, & nature's debt I paid 
My fabric now sleeps, my labours are o'er, 
My spirits landed on the boundless shore. 
Nor you friends, can death, God's messenger stay, 
But must repose too, in mouldering clay, 
Then your golden days improve, as they haste, 
Living joys flowing from Religion taste. 
Be wise, love mercy, humbly with God walk 
Then vice can't proffered fruitions mock. 
That you may sing, in Canaan's liberty, 
O death, grave, where are thy sting & victory.
