English: Sampler (Scotland), 1825
Description
English: Large building in center with flowers, animals, and large swan at bottom. Text: "Hail, Night! Thou gentle emblematic shade/ Of that tremendous period fix'd by God,/ When Drear forgetfulness shal veil the dead,/ And fame be lost beneath the green grass sod./ This ends the race of feeble man below;/ Nor pow'r, nor honour, frame nor youthful bloom,/ Can gain a respite from the dreadful blow./ Tis virtue only triumphs o'er the tomb."
