May 8th
O that I could now give thee, O lord, all that praise,
Glory and honour, with which the angels and blessed
Spirits glory the in heaven. but because I am unable to
do this accept at least this my desire and good will,
our Dear Missionary the Rev Mr Smith call this morning and
prayed with me. I hope that god will hear his prayer
and answer for me.
I have been to the place that is opinted for all the living
to my Dear children tomb. of silence of death. and of dust.
Oh no from the sorrowing train
there hastens a beautiful maid -
Ere the moon shall be full in her lustre again
Her form by his side will be laid,
the kindred in blood. far from sight,
together shall slumber in peace
the kindred in spirit there voices unite
in praises, that never shall cease,
