FJ.782.096
4 Dec 1782:31 (2/85)
The following lines were found in Mr. Peale's New Room,
pinn'd to the curtain which hangs before the portrait of
Mrs. Peale lamenting the death of her child.
  Draw not the curtain, if a tear, 
  Just trembling in a parent's eye
  Can fill your gentle soul with fear
  Or cause your tender heart to sigh.
