"Killed at " What matters where? He is dead, and that is enough ! "Killed!" It is written thero In letters that stare and stare ! What though the telling be rough ? He is dead, and that is enough ! " Died with his face to the foe, Trying another to «aye !" How else, how else should he die ? I could not have loved him so If he had not been bravest of brave ! Dead, and no word of good-bye ! No whisper of love from afar ? 0 star ! star ! star ! I.looked in your eyes last night, And I saw his eyes in your light ; And I knew, I knew he would die, For that was his last good bye ! Get you gone ! Get you gone from my sight ! Why do you stand and stare ? He is dead ! It is written there ! And it's late— so late to-night ! There ! there ! forgive me, but go ! You mean to be kind, I know, But leave me to God and to him ! "Killed, with his face to the foe !" The light— is— getting— dim !— Leave me — to God — and— to him !
