Note 94 — EDWARD FITZGERALD: AN AFTERMATH.

So I wrote six years since, and now a rose tree does grow over it, a rose tree raised in Kew Gardens from hips brought by William Simpson, the veteran artist traveller, from Omar’s grave at Naishápur, and planted here by my brother members of the Omar Khayyám Club on 7th October 1893 (‘Concerning a Pilgrimage to the Grave of Edward FitzGerald.’ By Edward Clodd Privately printed, 1894).
