Caleb PACKARD

Grave

In memory of Mr. Caleb Packard, who departed this life May ye 27, 1783, in the 24th year of his age.

See here's the youth whose cheerful bloom
Promised a train of years to come;
Whose soft address and graceful air
Had obtained the yealding fair,
When fate divides, thro' exploded joy,
And all his flattering hopes destroy.
