And all things show it.
I thought so once and
Now I know it.

Under the sod and under the trees
Lies the body of Jonathan Pease.
He is not here, there's only the pod:

I was somebody.
Who, is no business
Of yours.

In Memory of
Beza. Wood
Departed this life
Nov. 2, 1837
Aged 45 yrs.
Here lies one Wood
Enclosed in wood
One Wood
Within another.
The outer wood
Is very good:
We cannot praise
The other.
