20 Sep 1773:23 (1982)
Cambridge, Sept. 15. 1773. On Monday night died here, Miss
Sally Inman, youngest daughter of Ralph Inman, Esq; scarce
fifteen years she trod the chearful round of artless
innocence--when sudden death snatch'd her, relentless from a
parent's arms.--
A form more beauteous few indeed could boast.
Her soul with sweet simplicity and virtue fraught,
Untainted with the follies of the age--
Guiltless she liv'd, nurs'd in a calm retreat
Virtue's best friend:-- from happiness below--
She's gone, we trust, to taste immortal bliss,
And soar among the stars.------
