    No, no! The energy of life may be
    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.

It must be so--Plato, thou reasonest well!--
Else whence this pleasing hope, this fond desire,
This longing after immortality?
Or whence this secret dread, and inward horror,
O falling into nought? Why shrinks the soul
Back on herself, and startles at destruction?
'Tis the divinity that stirs within us;
'Tis heaven itself, that points out an hereafter,
And intimates eternity to man.
