(Poem)
Bury me, please, in Ludgvan earth
Near where I used to play
Outside the two-room school that serves
Another use today.
Where many of my folk have lain
For centuries at rest
My ashes will, I heavenly pray
In that same earth be blest.
I shall not hear the sea -birds cry,
I shall not feel the rain
Enough to be in Ludgvan earth:
I have come home again.
By the late J H Martin (John Penwith), buried with his wife and parents, in the churchyard, overlooking St.Michael`s Mount.
