No pulse—no heart—no feeling hers!

She lends the warning voice to Fate;

And still companions, while she stirs,

The changes of the Human State!

So may she teach us, as her tone

But now so mighty, melts away—

That earth no life which earth has known

From the Last Silence can delay!

Slowly now the cords upheave her!

From her earth-grave soars the Bell;
