- Dear Brother Benedict is dead,
His life on this earth is run;
Many kindly words are said
Now about that holy man.In habbit brown and white cord
He toiled most assiduously,
In the vineyard of thy Lord
To the age of eighty-three.As he lived so he had died
In solemn prayer peacefully,
Wholly resigned and satisfied
He left the Monastery.To his pious brother bade adieu
And their holy happy home;
I hope to join the chosen few
On God Almighty's Throne.His paths were paths of righteousness
Always sincere and just.
Overflowing with truthfulness
A safe custodian of any trust.(continues on next page)- Informant
