English poem
Lx
by Bliss Carman
When I have departed, Say but this behind me, “Love was all her wisdom, All her care.
“Well she kept love’s secret,— Dared and never faltered,— Laughed and never doubted Love would win.
“Let the world’s rough triumph Trample by above her, She is safe forever From all harm.
“In a land that knows not Bitterness nor sorrow, She has found out all Of truth at last.”
