IN after days when grasses high                           #62
            O'er-top the stone where I shall lie,
                  Though ill or well the world adjust
                  My slender claim to honour'd dust,
            I shall not question nor reply.

            I shall not see the morning sky;
            I shall not hear the night-wind sigh;
                  I shall be mute, as all men must
                         In after days!

            But yet, now living, fain would I
            That some one then should testify,
                  Saying -- 'He held his pen in trust
                  To Art, not serving shame or lust.'
            Will none? -- Then let my memory die
                         In after days!
