    Of all
    The fools who flock'd to swell or see the show
    Who car'd about the corpse? The funeral
    Made the attraction, and the black the woe;
    There throbb'd not there a thought which pierc'd the pall.

and fill my promise to my wife to put a crucifix on

Build me a shrine, and I could kneel
To rural Gods, or prostrate fall;
Did I not read more

Build me a shrine, and I could kneel
To rural Gods, or prostrate fall;
Did I not see, did I not feel.
That One Great Spirit governs all.
O Heaven, permit that I may lie
Where o'er my corse green branches wave;
And those who from life's tumults fly
With kindred feelings press my grave.

And all that beauty, all that wealth e'er gave,
Await alike th' inevitable hour,
The paths of glory lead but to the grave.
