“To lie in the soft brown earth, with the grasses waving above one's head, and listen to silence. To have no yesterday, and no tomorrow. To forget time, to forgive life, to be at peace.” - Oscar Wilde

'Oh for the touch of a vanished hand...': Alice Stuart 1852 - 1892
The stone reads:
Erected
By
S.W. Stuart, Dublin
In Affectionate
And Loving Memory of
His Beloved Wife
Alice
Who died 27th March 1892.
Aged 40 years
Oh for the touch of a vanished hand
and the sound of a voice that is still.
I heard the voice of Jesus say
Come unto me and rest,
Lay down thou weary one lay down
Thy head upon my breast.
