Ruth BIXBY

Pine Grove (Topsfield) Cemetery
Essex County,
Massachusetts

In Memoy of
Mrs. Ruth Bixby
Relict of Mr. Daniel Bixby,
who died Sept. 14, 1808
AEt. 90

Why should we tremble to convey
Their bodies to the tomb,
There the dear flesh of Jesus lay
And left a long perfume.
The Graves of all his Saints he Blest
And soften'd every bed,
Where should the dying members rest
But with the dying head.
