A
-
He gave away his LifeB
To Us Gigantic SumC
A trifle in his own esteemD
But magnified by FameE
-
Until it burst the HeartsF
That fancied they could holdG
When swift it slipped its limitH
And on the Heavens unrolledH
-
'Tis Ours to wince and weepI
And wonder and decayJ
By Blossoms gradual processK
He chose MaturityH
-
And quickening as we sowedH
Just obviated BudH
And when We turned to note the GrowthL
Broke perfect from the PodH
