"Sleep, here! sleep, as valiant as dear!
"In the silent shade of the yew tree's gloom;
"May the soft Moon-beam, so silvery clear,
"Shed sweetest slumberings over thy tomb!
"And should some gallant youth, in the ages to be,
"To this solitude come where thine ashes lie,
"Beholding this lofty tomb, like thee,
"Let him for his country dare to die!"
