“Come gentle stranger turn aside

Leave where though art intrusive pride

On me this favour pray bestow

Approach and read these lines below

You’re born in sin estranged from God

And must be washed in Jesus’ blood

Must know on earth your sins forgiven

If you expect to enter heaven

To this brief lecture pray attend

That’s all – pass on obedient friend”
