“He stood, a soldier, to the last right end,
A perfect patriot and a noble friend,
But most a virtuous son.

By him, so ample, full, and round
In weight in measure, number, sound,
As, though his age imperfect might appear,
His life was of humanity the sphere.”

Small print overspread it,
The news of a day I’ve forgotten
If I ever read it.”
