Memorial: Pollox D568

Located in the Pollux system, orbiting body 1, a memorial dedicated to CMDR Tony Pox can be found.

Upon scanning the listening post, the memorial reads:

D568
Les sanglots longs
Des violons
De l’automne

Blessent mon cœur
D’une langueur
Monotone.

The memorial is the first part of a poem, “Chanson d’automne” (“Autumn Song”) by Paul Verlaine

When translated into English, this part of the poem would read as:

The long sobs
Of violins
Of autumn

Wound my heart
With a monotonous
Languor.
