Arthur Joseph Munby,
Once a Week, Series 1, Volume IV…
“ To-day is thine, to-night the Almighty Lender Resumes thee back into the timeless years: Goodbye! Not in a waste of sheeted snow thou diest, Nor ’mid tumultuous echoes of the deep; Grey placid evening folds thee where thou liest, And modest airs caress thee into sleep: Goodbye! How calm a death for such insatiate warrior! ”
