“Death quarrels, and shakes the tree,
And fears are flowers, and flowers are generation,
And the founding, foundering, beast-instructed mansion
Of love called into being by this same death
Hangs everywhere its light.”

And shambles down the dirty street
The last man in the town, they said,
Whod shot a hundred Yankees dead.”
