ANGELA BURDETT-COUTTS
(Died January 2nd, 1907)
The Baroness is dead; the nation needs
No other name for her; there was but one
Who bore a crownlet that so brightly shone
Because it was the symbol of good deeds.
No other name for her; there was but one
Who bore a crownlet that so brightly shone
Because it was the symbol of good deeds.
The Baroness is dead; so sadly surge
The billows of reiterated dole
Upon a People's lips; but in their soul
Throbs the great ocean of a deeper dirge.
The billows of reiterated dole
Upon a People's lips; but in their soul
Throbs the great ocean of a deeper dirge.

The Baroness is dead; from shore to shore
And over every sea the message goes;
Passed is the searcher of neglected woes;
The healer of the wounded is no more.
And over every sea the message goes;
Passed is the searcher of neglected woes;
The healer of the wounded is no more.
