Mrs Melissa Borlase:
With faith in God in patience wait;
Thy troubles soon will all be oer
And thou wilt reign in Queenly state
In realms above through countless years:-
In youthful beauty constant grow;
Then pain, nor death, nor flowing tears
No longer shalt thou ever know;
But countless years will mark thy fame
And mighty growth of thy domain.
