ÉPITAPHE
Voici la porte d'où je sors...
Ô mes roses et mes épines!
Qu'importe l'autrefois? Je dors
En songeant des choses divines...
Voici donc mon âme ravie,
Car elle s'apaise et s'endort
Ayant pour l'amour de la Mort,
Pardonné ce crime: la Vie!
Renée Vivien'

Passy graves
Renée Vivien (1877–1909), née Pauline Mary Tarn in London, was the daughter of an American woman and a wealthy British man who died in 1886, leaving her far from need. Vivien travelled a great deal and had a stormy relationship with Natalie Barney, who is also buried in Passy, and whom I mentioned here.
