inscription
above, left-hand stanza: "To the Flower called Forget Me Not./ Fond memory's Flower, of azure dye,/ Permit thy Bard one boon to crave,/ when in Death's narrow bed I lie,/ Oh! bloom around My humble Grave."; right-hand stanza: "And if some tender faithful Friend/ should, led by Love, approach the spot,/ And o er thy Flowers admiring bend./ Then say for me Forget me not!/ Mrs. Opie"; below basket of flowers: "Ann Rome."
