In Faith he Dy’d; in Dust he lies
But faith foresees that Dust shall rise
When JESUS calls, while Hope Assumes
And boasts her joy among the tombs
from the grave of Alexander Peronneau, 12 year old boy, died 1747,
gravestone found in the graveyard of the Circular Congregational Church
Charleston, South Carolina
