-35--.A Belvoir Angel. Larger, rectangular slate with round-faced winged angel. -Come ye Blessed- and hearts in relief carving. to Thomas son of Richard and Hellen Fawlkes d. May 1st 1722 aged 26 years. -Come mourn with me all you that hear. Upon the earth come shed a tear/ For him whose life is fled away. His comly corps laid up in clay/ In hopes to have a glorious spring. With heavnly Angels there to sing/ Like to the Damaske Rose wesee. Or likethe blossom on the tree/ or like the dainty flower in May. Or like the morning to the day/ such was this rose in youthfull time. Nipt of by death just in his prime/ I hope I have done none no wrong. The Jewels gone my verse is done-. (Photo Oct 2012).
