The Swinford Funeral, by Jack B. Yeats
C. S. Lewis

Epitaph

Here the whole world (stars, water, air,
And field, and forest, as they were
Reflected in a single mind)
Like cast off clothes was left behind
In ashes, yet with hopes that she,
Re-born from holy poverty,
In lenten lands, hereafter may
Resume them on her Easter Day

Originally written on the death of Charles Williams; he later adapted it to place on his wife's grave.
