H. C. K.

Burial in an erect Posture (Vol. viii., p. 59.).—

"Pass, pass, who will yon chantry door,

And through the chink in the fractured floor

Look down, and see a grisly sight,

A vault where the bodies are buried upright;

There face to face and hand lay hand

The Claphams and Mauleverers stand."

Wordsworth, White Doe of Rylstone, Canto I.,

p. 5., line 17., new edition, 1837.
