Memoir
Of our beloved Sister <persname>Karen Borg</persname>, who
departed to the Lord at <placename>Gracehill</placename>,
<date>March 8 1847</date>.
The vice of that blood which
Flowed from thee Saviour!
Which cries aloud wherein I tread
Thy tears for my ransom - all
Plead in my favor,
Nor call for vengeance on my head.
No! grace & free mercy thy looks impart,
And this day refresh me taken my heart.
In spirit thy once bleeding hands I embrace
Which bear me triumphant
Though all my distress.

This verse contains in it the history of
my course on earth, regarding which I have
nothing remarkable to record; but I would
acknowledge the mercy of our faithful Friend
and Saviour, who sought and found me,
                                                         and
