GDG- Give him place, O ye prairies

[Char & Charlie]

Having visited it last May - it is an awe inspiring place.  And a visit
there is a must.  The original tomb at the bottom of the hill that is in all
of the old photos I bet is missed by many visitors.  We enjoyed Springfield
a lot.

O death! [5] Thou awe-inspiring prince,
That keepst the world in fear;
Why dost thou tear more blest ones hence,
And leave him ling'ring here?
