Death & Dying
His Epitaph
From The Oxford Book of Victorian Verse (1912)
Death & Dying
Lo! where the four mimosas blend their shade,
In calm repose at last is Landor laid;
For ere he slept he saw them planted here
By her his soul had ever held most dear,
And he had lived enough when he had dried her tear.
