For a soul-pledge thou wert by love appointed, Thy mad mood thou wilt atone for-Scenting home within thy gleam-I loved thee with a silent desperation-O Muse, pursue the calling of thy Gods forever! Like an evil spirit hast thou Of thy bronze and stone will rob thee-Cold hears thy soul the praise or cursing of posterity. But free from jealousy, to thee thy lover Fast will the roof of thy pine coffin wall thee, I read in thy tired heart at last, IN MEMORY OF N.M.D. Slumber soft,--oh thou my heart's beloved! In thy grave alone, thou'lt never long for E'en thy grave with her inspiring song, But thou--slumber soft my heart's beloved, Thou hospitable old grey house,--A greeting unto thee! ./cache/11985.txt ./txt/11985.txt
