In the very small hollows of the shrine, the epitaph had faded. It seemed as if a constant rain might be dripping down causing the damage. However, as I stepped nearer, I could see where animals had been laying, crushing the grass surround. Apparently there was something that drew them to the gravesite.
As one who craves knowing the history behind epitaphs, it was heartwarming to see that even the animals could tell the importance of the person buried here.
