_Milton's (?) Epitaph_ (Vol. v., p. 361.).--Your correspondent is possibly

not acquainted with the Rev. Charles Wordsworth's very beautiful epitaph on

his first wife. It is in the College Chapel at Winchester, and is

remarkably similar in idea to the one he gives. The words are:

I nimiùm dilecta! vocat Deus: i bona nostræ

Pars animæ: moerens altera disce sequi."
