The New Cemetery was consecrated by the Bishop of Exeter in 1837 on St Bartholomew's Day (24 August), 200 years exactly after the old cemetery was consecrated.
My attention was caught by a poem scribbled at the front:
Man’s life is like an hour glass wherein
Each several sand that passeth is a sin
And when the latest sand is spent and run
Our sins are finished and our lives are done
