Thanks, Frank!  Yours is the only comment, though 61 people have viewed the 
pic.  I guess the rest experienced either indifference or revulsion--can't know 
which.

I looked at the inscription at 2:1 on the original; it reads:

(illegible)
(illegible) Memory of 
Mary Parsons
Who departed this Life
(illegible) 2 1854 Aged 44 Years
The Memory of the Just is Blessed

Somehow it seemed to go along with the aging daffodils...
