By Martinengo-Cesaresco, Evelyn Lilian Hazeldine Carrington, contessa
And when they reach thy neighbourhood
And by thy house pass on,
Then, O my well-beloved, thy hair,
Thy golden tresses cut;
And when they reach the church's gate,
And there my coffin put,
Then as the hen her feathers plucks,
Artist: Martinengo-Cesaresco, Evelyn Lilian Hazeldine Carrington, contessa
Year: 1850
