Inscription

On a Stone, in the Church-Yard at Boreham,

Essex; raised by the Honourable Elizabeth Olmius,to the memory of Ann Gardner, who died at

Hall, after a faithful Service of Forty Years.

TE'ER of praise, and of regret attend The grateful servant, and the humble friend,

Where strict integrity and worth

To raise the lowly in their Maker's sight,  Are her's; whose faithful service, long approved,

Wept by the mistress whom through life she loved.

Here ends her earthly task; in joyful

To share the eternal triumph of the just.
