xlii THE AUSTEN FAMILY. 



Over the vault is inscribed, beneath the cross 



" In the hope of a blessed resurrection, here rest the loved 

 remains of Major N. LAURENCE AUSTEN." 



" How sleep the brave, who sink to rest, 

 By all their country's wishes blest ! 

 When spring, with dewy fingers cold, 

 Returns to deck their hallowed mould, 

 She there shall dress a sweeter sod 

 Than Fancy's feet have ever trod."
