Inscriptions
Front, printed, "THE WISH / OF A / FRIEND. / Wherever you dwell, may content be your lot / And friendship, like ivy, encircle your cot, / And may each rosy morn, drest in mantle of peace, / Shed health o'er your cottage, your blessings / increase. / [success ; / May your honest endevours be crown'd with / May you always live happy, ne'er witness distress; / On your humble roof may these blessings descend, / 'Tis a wish free from guile-'tis the wish of a friend.".
