Is Not Absence Death To Those Who

Mark What Unvary'd Laws Preserve Each State, Laws Wise As Nature, And As Fixed As Fate.

Placed On This Isthmus Of A Middle State.

And More Than Echoes Talk Along The Walls.

If, Presume Not To God To Scan; The Proper Study Of Mankind Is Man. Plac'd On This Isthmus Of A Middle State, A Being Darkly Wise, And Rudely Great.

Honor And Shame From No Condition Rise. Act Well Your Part: There All The Honor Lies.
