Inscription
Here rests a woodman of the world/DUM TACET CLAMAT; tis hard to break the tender corn, When love has found the heart, Tis hard so hard to speak the words, We must forever part, Dearest loved one we may lay thee, In the peaceful graves embrace, But thy memory will be cherished, Until we see thy heavenly face
