First Line: Beneath the crossway buried
Last Line: The culprit-flower so dear.
Subject(s): Suicide
BENEATH the crossway buried,
The suicide lies here,
Where grows a charming blue flow'ret,
The culprit-flower so dear.
I stood by the crossway sighing,
The night was chilly and drear,
While slowly moved in the moonlight
The culprit-flower so dear.
