    To ease an old man who was dying.”

    Dawdling over the remorseless earth,
    What evil, what unspeakable crime
    Have you made your life worth?”

    We shall afford our costly seasons;
    There is a gentleness survives
    That will outspeak and has its reasons.
    There is a loveliness exists,
    Preserves us, not for specialists.”
