And in all scenes true resignation see.

Tho. Brevard
The above Transcribed June 24th 1864 by J.J.B.

Scrap translated

What is the blooming tincture
To peace of mind & harmony within
What the bright sparkling of the finest eye
To the soft soothing of a calm reply
Can comliness of form or shape or air
With comliness of words or deeds compare
No, those at first the unawary heart may gain
But these, these only can the heart retain

June 1st 1800

Acrostic for General Jackson
Go teach the British hirelings peace
Enlarge the limits of our soil
Nor let the pride of Englands fleece
Ever reach again their boosting Isle
Rise & extend victorious arms
Around our frontier southern bounds
Learn british allies, savage swarms
