Freed from the load I long have bore
Anxiety and care
I see a cause to weep no more
My load is light to bear
Mine eyes are where the weary rest
And are forbid to weep
My mind before I died.

[Wife of Amos Hughes

My joy was mingled with distress
Tho my intention pure
The Lord came hastily to bless
Disease without a cure
To death my body hath resigned
My life I spent in prayer
To serve the Lord in soul or mind
My hands did feed the poor.] - - -
