M.I. at Waterloo. The following touching verses to the memory of this
gallant officer were published soon after his death:—
“Weep not; he died as heroes die,
The death permitted to the brave;
Mourn not; he lies where soldiers lie,
And valour envies such a grave.
“His was the love of bold emprise,
Of soldier’s hardships, soldier’s fame!
And his the wish by arms to rise,
And gain a proud, a deathless name.”
