WHEN mine hour is come
Let no teardropp fall
And no darkness hover
Round me where I lie.
Let the vastness call
One who was its lover,
Let me breathe the sky.
Where the lordly light
Walks along the world,
And its silent tread
Leaves the gra**es bright,
Leaves the flowers uncurled,
Let me to the dead
Breathe a gay goodnight.
