    Trend softly o'er this hallow'd ground,
    Here, learn how vain are earthly joys;
    How soon they fade away,
    Here pause and drop a tear
    Martha tis thou who claims the tears,
    Which moistens friendships weeping eye
    (?)ource enter'd on life's happy morn.
    Blest with affection's dear Martha
    From husband, children, parents borne
    To yonder plains of blissful rest;
    There does thy happy soul now rest
    And every blissful joy is thine.
