He heard her tale of matchless woe,
And burning for revenge he rose,
And laid her base seducer low,
And struck dismay to virtue's foe.

Daughter of Virtue! Moist thy tear.
This tomb of love and honor claim;
For thy defense the husband here,
Laid down in youth his life and fame.

- Anne Cooke, written on the grave of her and her husband
