Roxey Ann Caplin

[2] She died on 2 August 1888 at Cambridge Lodge, St Leonard's East Sheen in Surrey.

Suffice if for the wondering world to mark She took from all beside the medal in Hyde Park; The only prize that was for corsets given to any manufacturer under heaven.

the dazzling splendours of her fame advance O'er 'All England' and the whole of France She, the beloved, who now fills Brunswick's throne Deals with Madame Caplin – her alone; Why need I paint the heroine of my lays, Or tell the land where passed her virgin days; 'Twas Canada!

'-above all colonies renowned— that heard my heroine's praises first resound, You'll an incarnation of the graces meet at No.

Science and pure benevolence combined, A deity in human form enshrined; Gracious demeanour, and courtly mien, Learning and worth are thine, great Native queen.
