The Tragedy of the Flying Squirrels 



The bodies were buried in the garden 

 where witch-hazel branches overhang 

 their grave, for they were not separated 

 at the last; and, as head-gardener at 

 Dumbiedykes, I can testify to this 

 one fact that, although this all hap- 

 pened many years ago, wild violets 

 have ever since sprung perennially 

 from the ground wherein they sleep.
