There are many women of valor but you were above all of them, 
God-fearing, her thoughts and her heart were loyal to the Lord, 
extended her hands to the needy and revived the soul of the suffering,

nineteen years old,  to what height did her soul accelerated to, her glory was lifted to the
heavens,  surely she is the important woman, the beloved Ms. Reizel

the tenth day of Tevet 5642 [1 January 1882]
