Alice Busk, wife of Wadsworth Busk,
Esq., Attorney-General of the Isle, on the 11th June, 1776, in the 38th
year of her age. Her valuable life was suddenly lost By a fatal and deplorable accident: To the heart rending grief Of one whose happiness, lies buried here: Whose health, whose ease, whose comfort was her care, Whose inclinations ere his lips had uttered them, She caught even from his eye, and regarded as a Law; Whom to the last she hundred with her love, And having blest him while she lived, Blest him also with her expiring breath. On his distracted mind, the virtues she possest, Have too deeply stamped the remembrance Of her untimely death; tho' submitted to by herself In the most calamitous circumstances With a degree of fortitude and resignation, Which Christianity only could inspire; And which reflected a lustre On her sex, her character, and her religion. |
