ROBERT AND ELIZABETH COLLINGS"

CHILDREN.

Paternal God and author of our frame,
Thy kingdom come and hallowed be thy name;
May we obey like angels in the sky,

Our daily wants with daily bread supply;
As we our debtors, do thou our debts forgive,
Guard us from vice while here on earth we live ;
So shall our goodness in our welfare shine,
Then be the kingdom, power, and glory thine.

IN MEMORY OF

DINAH JACKSON,

Who died, 25th April, 1799; aged 58.

Here rests from all the cares of life,
The tender mother and the virtuous wife;
Each fleeting day affections sweet did tend,
The kind companion and the constant friend;

Mixt with its native dust the body lies,
The soul triumphs and lives above the skies;
Stop, passenger! look o'er this hallow'd spot,
What now is here, one day shall be thy lot!
