[407]

As the coffin was lowered into the grave, a clergy man, with prophetic voice, repeated these words of the Apostle Paul:

I have fought the good fight; I have finished my course; I have kept the faith: henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, shall give me; and not to me only, but unto all that love his appearing.

Thayer and Eldridge, 1860.
