He has out-soared the shadow of our night;.

Envy and calumny, and hate and pain,.

And that unrest which men miscall delight,.

Can touch him not and torture not again;.

From the contagion of the world's slow stain.

He is secure, and now can never mourn.

A heart grown cold, a head grown gray in vain;.

Nor when the spirit's self has ceased to burn,.

With sparkless ashes load an unlamented urn.
