Am I not with thee ? Shall I go from thee ? Am I not thine ? Am I not wholly thine ? " Then Adam lifted up his fallen brow And gently laid his great arms round her neck ; He looked into her eyes, into her soul. The face of Eve was falling toward his breast ; Her hair with his was mingled ; now no more They spoke, for they had come beyond all words. They spoke not, stirred not, but together leaned, Grand in the marble gesture of a grief Becalmed for ever in the certitude Of this last hour that o...ver them stood still. Thus had they stayed, nor moved, nor heeded aught ; But 'twixt them and the light a shadow fell : And Adam lifted up his eyes, and saw Seth standing there ; he knew the hour was come. For lo, about the doorway were the sons Of Adam all assembled, with their wives ^ And children weeping ; they had brought a bed Of plaited osiers heaped with leaves ; and now Laying him on that litter, silently They lifted up the poles. Eve weeping sank I THE DEATH OF ADAM Upon her knees : she kissed the dear last kiss ; She held his body in her tender arms One aching moment, then relinquished him.
