Description

The tomb of Robert Louis Stevenson is just below the 476-meter summit of Mt. Vaea.

This epitaph can be read on the grave:

Under the wide and starry sky,
Dig the grave and let me lie.
Glad did I live and gladly die,
And I laid me down with a will.

This be the verse you grave for me:
Here he lies where he longed to be;
Home is the sailor, home from the sea,
And the hunter home from the hill.
