    Inscription
    To the memory of
    Mr. John Blunt
    Pastor of the Church of Christ
    In This Town
    Who Died Aug'st 7th 1748
    In the 42'd year of his age
    whose Body lies here Inter'd
    This Stone is Erected.
    -----------
    Soft is the sleep of Saints in Peace they lie,
    They rest in Silence, but they never die,
    From these dark Graves their Flesh refin'd shall rise,
    And in Imortal Bloom assend the skies,
    Then shall thine Eyes dear Blunt thine Hands, thy Tongue
    In Nicer Harmony each member hung
    Resume their warm Devotion and Adore HIM in whose Service they were join'd before.
