The memory of
Mrs. Susan B. Hubbard
Who was born March 28th, 1804
Died November 17th, 1849
O may I live like her, and like her die
Living to Gods commands my soul apply.
Blameless and virtuous be in all mens sight,
and try to prove myself to God aright;
Dying to his just will my soul resign,
and count the triumphs of the righteous mine.
