Sybil  Todd


August 2007


Sybil
Consort of John Willer
who died May 10 1777
in the 18th year of her age.
 
  Lovely in death the beauteous ruin lay
  And if in death still lovelier there
  Far lovelier! pity swells the tide of love
  And will not the severe excuse a sigh?
Ye that e'er lost an angel pity one.
Erected by her parents.


Orcutt, Rev. Samuel,  History of the Old Town of Derby, Connecticut, 1642-1880,
   (Springfield, Massachusetts, Press of Springfield Printing Company, 1880)
