In Affectionate Remembrance of
Edmund Hirst,
of Cop-Row
Who departed this life March 1st 1877,
In the 37th year of his age,
And was interred at Haggate Chapel, March 6th

Come Gracious Spirit, heavenly Dove,
With light and comfort from above;
Be Thou our Guardian, Thou our Guide,
O'er every thought and step preside.
Conduct us safe, conduct us far
From every sin and hurtful snare;
Lead to Thy word, that rules must give,
And teach us lessons how to live.
