    Build me a shrine, and I could kneel
    To rural Gods, or prostrate fall;
    Did I not see, did I not feel.
    That One Great Spirit governs all.
    O Heaven, permit that I may lie
    Where o'er my corse green branches wave;
    And those who from life's tumults fly
    With kindred feelings press my grave.

By Nebo's lonely mountain,
On this side Jordan's wave,
In a vale in the land of Moab,
There lies a lonely grave;
But no man built that sepulcher,
And no man saw it e'er,
For the angels of God upturned the sod
And laid the dead man there.

Some village Hampden, that, with dauntless breast,
The little tyrant of his fields withstood,
Some mute inglorious Milton here may rest,
Some Cromwell guiltless of his country's blood.
