Edgar Lee Masters Ravishment Case

The lawyer, John M. Church from the collection of epitaphs composed by Edgar Lee Masters was predicated of the other epitaphs that link to a ravishment case. The epitaph includes how good, prosperous, and affluent this lawyer was, but at the cessation comes up with a quote that says, "But the rats devoured my heart, And a snake made a nest in my skull!" The best inference made up from this quote, in my opinion, would be that he either had a change of heart or died. Either one has to do with the ravishment case of the small town poetess.
