• Her hands are cold; her face is white;
      No more her pulses come and go;
    Her eyes are shut to life and light;—
      Fold the white vesture, snow on snow,
      And lay her where the violets blow.

    But not beneath a graven stone,
      To plead for tears with alien eyes;
    A slender cross of wood alone
      Shall say, that here a maiden lies...
