The dead and living with a frantic roar!

And so he died, his bosom fondly set

On hers; and round her clay-cold waist were met

His bare and wither’d arms, and to her brow

His lips were press’d. Both, both are perish’d now!

He died upon her bosom in a swoon:

And fancied of the pale and silver moon,

That went before him in her hall of blue;

He died like golden insect in the dew,

Calm, calm and pure; and not a chord was wrung
