How Many Desolate Creatures On The Earth

What Monster Have We Here? A Great Deed At This Hour Of Day? A Great Just Deed - And Not For Pay? Absurd - Or Insincere?

O Death, O Beyond, Thou Art Sweet, Thou Art Strange!

Love That Endures, From Life That Disappears!

I Love You For The Part Of Me That You Bring Out.

Earth May Embitter, Not Remove, The Love Divinely Given; And E'en That Mortal Grief Shall Prove The Immortality Of Love, And Lead Us Nearer Heaven.
