Isobel Gourlay'i Monument.

Spouse to John Boyacke Maltman ; who died 1. June. 1669,

From Dust I came, and thither do return,
Who here abide, till Tribes of Earth shall mourn ;
While Heav'n and Earth wrapt in a Scroll shall be,
And Christ with Saints coming in Clouds 1 see:
When Soul and Body united shall again
Be lifted up, with Christ for to remain.

Lo here doth lye, beneath this Stone,
The Bones of ane true-hearted one;
Who lived well and died better
Now sings in Heav'n Glory for ever.

Christ's Pow'r and Presence all my Life to find,

In Heav'n restor'd to glorious Libertie ;
With Mother, Children, where Husbands long to raise
To God, in Christ, immortal Songs of Praise.

Stay Trav'ller ; notice, who entomb'd here lyes,
One that was Virt'ous, chaste and very wise ;
Good to the Poor ; still liv'd a godly Life,
Both first and last, since she became a Wife.
To quarrel Death, for her Change, were but vain j
For, Death spares neither godly nor profane :
To say, she 's chang'd, were but a foolish Story i
If not to live eternally in Glory.
