Memorial (85)

HERE lyeth the Body of
Will'm WHITE, who departed
this life November th19.1699.
Aged 62 years.
To leave this painful life I did desire,
That I to heavenly mansions, might aspire
Wherefore I laboured with all my might.
To gain acceptance in my Saviours light,
knowing that you & I must once appear
Before ye Judgement seat of God to hear
Our final doom and if ye good account
(Exceed ye bad) then to Heaven
Shall mount
Kind reader therefore seek his love to gain,
Who unto Bliss, or, w ho, can us ordain.
