There she lies buried; there! that ground

Gated with rusty iron, where

She and her stanch forefathers sleep;

So old, the turf scarce shows a mound;

So gray, you scarce distinguish there

A headstone where the ivies creep

And myrtles bloom. A wall of stone

Squares it around; a place for dreams;

A mossy spot of sorrow;—lone,
