A lost thing could I never find,
Nor a broken thing mend:
And I fear I shall be all alone
When I get towards the end.
Who will there be to comfort me
Or who will be my friend?
From the poem The South Country, by Hilaire Belloc (1870- 1952)
This painting I found in this intriguing blog post. Although the painter is familiar, yet his name escapes me. Quam senex sum.

It was signed. The artist is apparently Eric Ravilious.
Thanks!
