INSCRIPTION ON A TOMB by ANONYMOUS

First Line: "I SEEK, SABINUS, BY THIS LITTLE STONE"
Last Line: DRINK NOT OF LETHE IN THE REALMS BELOW

I seek, Sabinus, by this little stone
Great love for thee, departed friend to own:
My love will last—thy love for me to show,
Drink not of Lethe in the realms below.
