Elizabeth 5th Duchess of Rutland. Her Poem inscribed on the pedestal column base:

One cultivated spot behold which spread

Its flowery bosom of the moontide beam

Where numerous rosebuds near their blending heads

And poppies gay and fragrant violets team.

Far from the busy world’s unceasing sound

Here has Eliza fix’d her favourite seat

Chaste emblems of the tranquil scene around

Pure as the flowers that smile beneath her feet.
