Laid pausefully upon life’s headlong train;—
The foot less prompt to meet the morning dew,
The heart less bounding at emotion new,
And hope, once crush’d, less quick to spring again.”

One side was gray, the other an indelible gray.
The two sides were separated by a third,
Or spirit wall, a coarser gray.”
