Oliver Wendell Holmes

For The Window In St. Margaret’s In Memory Of A Son Of Archdeacon Farrar

Afar he sleeps whose name is graven here,
Where loving hearts his early doom deplore;
Youth, promise, virtue, all that made him dear
Heaven lent, earth borrowed, sorrowing to restore.
 
Boston, April 12, 1891.
