ST. PETER'S CHURCH, PIMLICO
LINES ON THE DEATH OF SIR HUMPHRY DAVY, BART. 2

Оглавление

(For the Mirror.)

Let science weep and droop her head,

Her favourite champion, Davy's dead!

The brightest star among the bright,

Alas! has ceased to shed its light.

Yet say not darkness reigns alone,

While "Safety Lamps" are burning on,

And shedding life that never dies.

Around the tomb where Davy lies
