hsdrop said:

opposite side of the world as the Mariana Trench

Are ye' familiar with,

And love Creation's final law
Tho' Nature, red in tooth and claw
With ravine, shriek'd against his creed"

"In Memoriam A.H.H." is a poem by the British poet Alfred, Lord Tennyson, completed in 1849.

That's as far as I got. There was a fire in St. Louis of that year, but I don't know how that ties into a particular "house of worship."

[Unless it's St. Louis Cathedral or somesuch, but that's probably pushing it a little far.]

Worthy efforts, all of you, but still incorrect. :frown: Clue time, It's about the Author, not the subject. The location is in the UK. In Memoriam should be read in its entirety when one has time, that's not important to the riddle, just great literature. :smile:
