“Lo! Death has reared himself a throne
In a strange city lying alone
Far down within the dim West,
Where the good and the bad and the worst and the best
Have gone to their eternal rest.”

You have no limbs
Crying for stillness, you have no mind
Trembling with seraphim,
You have no death to come.”

These new delighted lakes, conclude
Our kneeling as cattle by all-generous waters?”
