An honest woman lies at rest

As e'er God with his image blest;

The friend of man, the friend of truth,

The friend of age, and guide of youth:

Few hearts like hers, with virtue warm'd,

Few heads with knowledge so informed:

If there's another world, she lives in bliss;

If there is none, she made the best of this.

With apologies to Robbie Burns, but it's fitting. Thank you EAL
