Inscription

"He cared nothing for the wealth or fame. His rare genius might easily have won, but his ear knew the songs of all birds. His eye saw the beauty of flowers and the secret of their life. His unerring taste delighted in what was best in books. So his pure and quiet days reaped their rich harvest of wisdom and content."
