Inscription

To the memory of
Mrs Katharine Eaton
the virtuous Relicit
of the Rev Mr Elisha Eaton,
who departed this Life
Apr 12 1767 AE 61

Here Passenger, confined reduced to Dust
Lies what was once religious, wise and just
Fixt[sic]in deep slumbers here the Dust is giv'n
Til the last trumpet shakes the Frame of Heav'n
Then fresh to life the waking Saint shall rise,
And in new Triumphs glitter up the Skies,
Like her virtuous, you like her shall shine
In Bliss above, immortal & divine.
