Julian Hawthorne

“ Rests the innocent child whom Memory sees,—
Memory made keen by Love; fairer than these
Fair scenes of earth are those that she has found.
But, when upon her grave I cast a rose,
Methinks, in that pure world where she is blest,
A heavenly blossom into being springs,
Yet tinged with somewhat mortal, and she knows
That some one, still in mortal garments dressed,
Seeks her remembrance, through earth’s purest things.
Julian Hawthorne.
