Sad Stone
"Reader, if thou hast a heart fam'd for tenderness and pity, contemplate this spot. In which are deposited the remains of a young lady whose artless beauty, innocence of mind and gentle manner once obtain'd her the love and esteem of all who knew her. But when nerves were too delicately spun to bear the rude shakes and jostlings which we meet with in this transitory world, nature gave way. She sunk and died a martyr to excessive sensibility" I was really taken by this epitaph and wanted to find out more. There is indeed more and here is some of it. atmospherichauntedplaces.blogspot.com/2009/03/courtiers-clifton-hampden.html" rel="noreferrer nofollow atmospherichauntedplaces.blogspot.com/2009/03/courtiers-c... www.horrormasters.com/Text/a2781.pdf" rel="noreferrer nofollow www.horrormasters.com/Text/a2781.pdf Dorchester Abbey, Appleford Circular
