Transcription supplied by Carolyn Ernst says:
In
memory of
William Maffett
Son of
Samuel and Jane Maffett
who departed this life
Oct 8th 1831
aged 26 years
O life, frail offspring of a day!
'Tis puff'd with short gasp away,
Swift as the short-lived flower, if flies,
It springs, it blooms, it fades, it dies.
The sun that makes your violets bloom
Once cheered his eye now dark in the death,
The wind that wanders o'er his tomb,
Was once his vital breath. |
