To disappear enhances—

To disappear enhances —The Man that runs awayIs tinctured for an instantWith Immortality

But yesterday a Vagrant —Today in Memory lainWith superstitious valueWe tamper with "Again"

But "Never" far as HonorWithdraws the Worthless thingAnd impotent to cherishWe hasten to adorn —

Of Death the sternest functionThat just as we discernThe Excellence defies us —Securest gathered then

The Fruit perverse to plucking,But leaning to the SightWith the ecstatic limitOf unobtained Delight —
