Ben Jonson's Sonnet "On My First Daughter" Taken to Other Places in Outer Space

Ben Jonson's "On My First Daughter" is a sad but beautiful sonnet that depicts a father's grief over his daughter's passing in her infancy. And with the last two lines of the sonnet, Zach Weinersmith of SMBC Comics made several other scenarios inspired by them but placed the setting in different locations in outer space. Check them out here.
