Benjamin Franklin's self eulogy.



The body of B. Franklin, Printer, 
Like the Cover of an old Book,
Its Contents torn out,
And Stript of its Lettering & Gilding,
Lies here, Food for Worms,

But the Work shall not be lost,
For it will as he believ'd appear once more
In a new and more elegant Edition
Corrected and improved 
By the Author.

- Benjamin Franklin

Dear Benjamin Franklin,

Your eulogy really excites me for that day when our creator will finally perfect us and raise us up!!I look forward to seeing the new edition of you on that day and thank you for encouraging me even when you are in the grave.
