Rhyme Scheme: AABBCDEF| By painful sickness long severely prest | A |
| Here sinks on Nature's sacred lap of rest | A |
| A friend who in a life too short display'd | B |
| A mind in virtue bright without one shade | B |
| Hence with unusual grief is Fondness mov'd | C |
| Hence more than Pity's sighs for one belov'd | D |
| Unshaken Honour sheds a manly tear | E |
| And weeping Virtue stops a mourner here | F |
