    Kept on after the grave, but not begun;
    And he who flagg'd not in the earthly strife,
    From strength to strength advancing--only he
    His soul well-knit, and all his battles won,
    Mounts, and that hardly, to eternal life.

Yet spirit immortal, the tomb cannot bind thee,
But like thine own eagle that soars to the sun
Thou springest from bondage and leavest behind thee
A name which before thee no mortal hath won.

But all lost things are in the angels' keeping, Love;
No past is dead for us, but only sleeping, Love;
The years of Heaven with all earth's little pain
Make Good
Together there we can begin again
In babyhood.
