"Our life is never at a stand, Tis like a fading flower. Death, which is always near at hand, comes nearer every hour. And those who are now young and gay, like roses in their bloom, will very soon be old and grey, and wither in the tomb. Then let us all prepare to die, since death is near and sure; And then it will not signify, if we were rich or poor. Elizabeth Biggs wrought this, aged Eleven years, 1833."
