English: In the upper third, a female figure with large flower spray and the inscription Ann Wood 1794, flanked by cupids and trees. In the middle, a flowering vine cross border and a verse. In the lower third, scattered motifs of a ships, dogs, bargello work, and flowers.
The verse reads:
From my Beginning may th (sic) Almighty Powers Blessings
bestow with never ceasing show o may I be happy
be and always blest of every joy of every wish possessed
May pleny (sic) dissipate all worldly cares And smiling peace

This work in hand my friends may keep when my frail
body is called to sleep to sleep while then we together
do meet again and wake forever |
