As we carried him down the churchyard path, a drop or two fell from the boughs, but a gleam of sunshine, the first after many days, shot along the crags from under the cloud, and the wind paused.  Standing there by the graveside, who could help being thankful that he had found so lovely a resting-place after so tranquil a falling to sleep?  At his feet, parted only by the fence and the garden, is the village school; and who does not know how he loved the children of Coniston?  At his right hand are the graves of the Beevers; his last old friend, Miss Susan Beever, lies next to him.  Over the spot hang the thick boughs of a fir-tree—­who does not know what he has written of his favourite mountain-pine?  And behind the church, shut in with its dark yews’, rise the crags of Coniston, those that he wearied for in his boyhood, beneath which he prayed, in sickness, to lie down and rest.  “The crags are lone on Coniston.”
