"Braintree, thy prophet's gone, this tomb inters the Rev. Moses Fiske his sacred herse, Adore heaven's praiseful art, that formed the man, Who soules, not to himself, but Christ oft won: Sailed through the straits with Peter's family, Renowned, and Gainus hospitialty, Paul's patience, James' prudence, John's sweet love, -- is landed, entered, cleared, and crowned above!"
