Henry Cooper, V.C., R.N.,
who entered into rest July 15th. 1893
aged 68 years.
Lord all pitying, Jesu blest,
Grant him thine eternal rest.
Also
Margery Cooper
wife of the above
who died 18th. February 1915
aged 83 years.
Till the day breaks, and the
shadows flee away.
Henry's epitaph appears to be taken, slightly amended, from the Pie Jesu section of the Requiem. Margery's epitaph is from the Song of Solomon, wherein it appears twice: Chapter Two, Verse 17; and Chapter Four, Verse Six.
