HOW SHOULD HE DIE?
Unto each his handiwork, unto each his crown, The just Fate gives ; Whoso takes the world’s life on him and his own lays down, He dying so, lives. W hoso bears the whole heaviness of the wrong’d world’s weight And puts it by, ° It is well with him suffering, though he face man’s fate ; How should he die ? Seeing death has no part in him any more, no power Upon his head : 1 He has bought his eternity with a little hour. And is not dead. A. G Swinburne.
