To commemorate the virtue of Homoeopathy in restoring one apparently drowned.
Love, that in a tear was drown’d,
Lives revived by a tear.
Stella heard them mourn around
Love that in a tear was drown’d,
Came and coax’d his dripping swound,
Wept ‘The fault was mine, my dear!’
Love, that in a tear was drown’d,
Lives, revived by a tear.
(Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch)
