Inscription
"Inscriptions from the old burying ground, Lynn, Mass" by Moulton, 1886, p. 5:
In memory of Mr. Benjamin Alley, who died July 5, 1842, in his 78th year.
A stranger and sojourner here below,
He waited his dear Master's call to go;
Sudden the summons comes, the chariot's at the door,
He's ready, enters, and is seen no more.
But by the eye of faith we him behold
Before his Father's throne with harp of gold:
He sings the song he here on earth began,
Glory to God and to the dying Lamb.
