Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: The woman killed by a tiger in Wiltshire Legend has it she was a maid at the White Lion Inn which held a roaming menagerie on 23 October 1703. Her curiosity drew her too close to its cage and the tiger mauled her. The rhyme on the stone, in Malmesbury Abbey churchyard, reads: In bloom of Life / She's snatchd from hence / She had not room / To make defence; / For Tyger fierce / Took life away. / And here she lies / In bed of Clay, / Until the Resurrection Day. |
