Samuel Taylor Coleridge - Epitaph
Work rating: Low

Stop, Christian passer-by : Stop, child of God,
And read, with gentle breast. Beneath this sod
A poet lies, or that which once seem`d he--
O, lift one thought in prayer for S. T. C.--
That he who many a year with toil of breath
Found death in life, may here find life in death:
Mercy for praise--to be forgiven for fame--
He ask`d, and hoped through Christ. Do thou the same.

Nov. 9, 1833.
