""Epitaph in Weston chuch yard near Bath, upon an innkeeper's daughter aged ten years". The text is probably apocryphal, being recorded in tea-table miscellanies with various names, occupations, and ages. The parish has no record of this memorial."

¶Liedtext

Undeck'd by sculpture's trophies gay, This stone no flatt'ring tale can tell Of her who claims this simple lay, Of her who fills this narrow cell; Save that in beauty's early bloom The path of innocence she trod, Save that her childhood found a tomb, Save that her spirit rests with God.
