Isaac Greentree (An Epitaph)
Language: English
In springtime comes the gentle rain, Soothing honey, sweet breeze, and sheltering sun. Beneath these trees rising to the skies, The planter of them, Isaac Greentree, lies. The time shall come when these trees shall fall And Isaac Greentree rise above them all.
