• Notes

  From Memorials of Herne, Kent (1887): the gravestone of John Fergusson Moultrie (against the West Railings, towards the South), on which are inscribed the following beautiful lines, by the Rev. John Moultrie, late vicar of Rugby. I give them because the late Dean of Westminster told me he thought no history of Heme Church would be complete without them. " Sweet babe, from griefs and dangers Rest here, for ever free ; We leave thy dust to strangers, But, oh, we leave not thee ! " Thy mortal sweetness, smitten To scourge our souls from sin, Is on our memory written, And treasured deep within ; " While that which is immortal Fond hope doth still retain ; ' And saith, ' At heaven's bright portal Ye all shall meet again.' "
