Percy Bysshe Shelley , drowned July 8 , 1822 . Mary Wolstonecraft Shelle y , died Feb . 1 , 1851 .
In death they are not divided . Two graves within one year I saw ,
Where sleep , a thousand miles apart , Husband and Wife , whose living law Was but to know one soul , one heart .
He sleeps beneath the Eoman rose , And violets , like his verse divine ; Shewhere the tenderest snowdrop blows
, , Amidst the heather and the pine . And yet we know they are not here ,
But where the heavenly lilies bloom , And amaranth , to the angels dear , Mocks our pale buds which deck the tomb .
There no dark cypress grows , nor pine , Where they , the Husband and the Wife , Their long-dissever'd lives entwine
, And dwell beneath the Tree of Life , JBoscombeMarch 14 , 1858 . B , B , P .
