Yet shall thy grave with rising flowers be drest,

And the green turf lie lightly on thy breast:

There shall the Morn her earliest tears bestow, 65

There the first roses of the year shall blow;

While angels with their silver wings o’ershade

The ground now sacred by thy relics made.

So, peaceful rests, without a stone, a name,

What once had beauty, titles, wealth, and fame. 70

How loved, how honoured once, avails thee not,

To whom related, or by whom begot;
