From First Church cemetery, Templeton, MA
In the cold, dark, and silent mound
Her body cold it lies:
But sure there will a trumpet sound
And bid her soul arise.

Let Vernal Roses Bloom
from a cemetery in New Salem, MA
For other nymphs let vernal roses bloom
Mine be the peaceful mansions of the tomb.
Peace to thy dust, dear friend farewell,
Till sounds for me the village bell
Oft as I tread this hallow'd ground.

O Youth Attend
from Pine Grove Cemetery, West Warren, MA
O youth attend, thy life amend,
And be prepar'd to die!
Think how soon it will be your doom
To lie as low as I.
O youth attend, thy life amend,
And be prepar'd to die!
Think how soon it will be your doom
To lie as low as I.
