And as they sit together in the night, Hand in hand, mingling breath, The fingers white of the cold starry light Smooth the sad hair of Death.
BALDER AND DEARTH. 185 III.
"0 DEATH, PALE DEATH." " O Death ! pale Death !
Thy hair is golden, not gray — In the dark min-ors of thine eyes, O Death, Lie glimmering dreams of day.
" O gentle Death !
Thy hand is warm, not chill, — Thy touch is soft and living, and thy breath Sweet, with no power to kill.
" I love thee, Death, for that great heavenly brow... Still dark from love's eclipse — And lo ! a hundredfold I hunger now To hear thy living lips.
" O gentle Death !
Speak, that mine ears may hear." Then like a fountain rose the voice of Death, Low, sweet, and clear !

DEATH SINGS.
" I KNOW not whence my feet have come, Nor whither they must go — Lonely I wander, dark and dumb, In summer and in snow.
" For on mine eyes there falls a gleam, That keeps them dim and blind.
Of strange eternities of dream Before me and behind ; " And ever, ever as I pace Along my lonely track.
