Within the bottom wreath the inscription 'A Tyrrell 1793' is worked. The first verse reads ' As the good shepherd tend his fleecycare/Seeks freshest pasture and the purest air/Explores the lost the wandering sheep directs/By day o'ersees them and by night protects/The tender lamb he raises in his arms/Feeds from his hand and in his bosom warms/ Thus shall mankind his guardian care engage/ The promised father of the future age/Pope'. The second reads 'Delightful task! To rear the tender thought/To teach the young idea to shoot/to pour the fresh instruction o'er the mind/To breathe the enlivening spirit/And to fix the generous purpose/In the glowing breast.
