For Morgan…<\/p>\n
“Peace, peace! he is not dead, he doth not sleep
\nHe hath awakened from the dream of life
\n‘Tis we, who lost in stormy visions, keep
\nWith phantoms an unprofitable strife,
\nAnd in mad trance, strike with our spirit’s knife
\nInvulnerable nothings. -We decay
\nLike corpses in a charnel; fear and grief
\nConvulse us and consume us day by day,
\nAnd cold hopes swarm like worms within our living clay.<\/p>\n
The One remains, the many change and pass;
\nHeaven’s light forever shines, Earth’s shadows fly;
\nLife, like a dome of many-coloured glass,
\nStains the white radiance of Eternity,
\nUntil Death tramples it to fragments. – Die,
\nIf thou wouldst be with that which thou dost seek!
\nFollow where all is fled!”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
