Widow of the late CALEB POND Esq died at Hartford February th aged	A
	-
	-
Would any think who marked the smile	B
On yon untroubled face	C
That threescore years and ten had fled	D
Without a wrinkling trace	C
	-
Yet age doth sometimes skill to guard	E
The beauty of its prime	F
And hold a quenchless lamp above	G
The water floods of time	F
	-
And she for whom we mourn maintained	H
Through every change and care	I
Those hallowed virtues of the soul	J
That keep the features fair	I
	-
They raised a little child to look	K
Into the coffin deep	L
Who dream'd the lovely lady lay	M
But in a transient sleep	L
	-
And gazed upon the face of death	N
With eye of tranquil ray	M
Well pleased as with the snowy flowers	O
That on her bosom lay	M
	-
Then on the sad procession moved	P
And mid funereal gloom	Q
The only son was there to lay	M
His mother in the tomb	Q
	-
Oh memories of an only child	R
How strong and rich ye are	S
A wealth of concentrated love	G
That none beside can share	I
	-
And hence the filial grief that swells	T
When breaks its latest tie	U
Flows onward with a fuller tide	V
Than meets the common eye	U
	-
With voice of holy prayer she pass'd	W
Forth from her pleasant door	X
Where tender recollections dwell	Y
Though she returns no more	X
	-
Even so the pure and pious rise	Z
From tents of pain and woe	A2
But leave a precious transcript here	B2
To guide us where they go	A2
