I'm trying to find the name of old (16 or 17 century) British poem. I could've swore it was by Elizabeth Browning, but apparently, it's not.
It's about a friend visiting his old buddy's grave, and he's talking to him. The dead friend is asking how things are going, and they reminisce for a while. The only other thing I can remember about the poem was at the very end, the dead friend asks if he got married, and he replies with something along the lines of "yes, but don't ask who's wife it is (he married the dead friend's wife)."
It's a long shot, but any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
HN
