Rhyme Scheme: ABBBCDEFGBHB IHBHJIKILBHBLast Post sounded | A |
Across the mead | B |
To where he loitered | B |
With absent heed | B |
Five years before | C |
In the evening there | D |
Had flown that call | E |
To him and his Dear | F |
You'll never come back | G |
Good bye she had said | B |
Here I'll be living | H |
And my Love dead | B |
- | |
Those closing minims | I |
Had been as shafts darting | H |
Through him and her pressed | B |
In that last parting | H |
They thrilled him not now | J |
In the selfsame place | I |
With the selfsame sun | K |
On his war seamed face | I |
Lurks a god's laughter | L |
In this he said | B |
That I am the living | H |
And she the dead | B |
