~ Also of WILLIAM TUCKER SHERSTON Son of DODINGTON SHERSTON. And BRIDGET his Wife. who died the 28th March 1770 in the 19th Year of his Age, whilst in pursuit of Academical Learning. with as much Improvement and Attention, as his weak Habit of Body would permit.
His Piety to God and filial Duty to his surviving Parent were great and unaffected.
An open and ingenuous Behaviour,
Adorned by genteel Manners.
An easy Cheerfulness
Recommended by a pleasing modest Countenance
Engaged him the Love of all.
Sweetness and equality of Temper.
Enabled his youthful and naturally lively mind.
To bear a lingering and painful Disease
with a wonderful Composure.
These happy Endearments with untainted Virtues Fitted him thro Jesus Christ
For those blissful Regions.
where love and Joy for ever reign
Dear Kindred Shades accept this last adieu.
This Tribute paid to Virtue and to you
