< < < As by the dead we love to sit
As imperceptibly as grief > > >

As children bid the guest good-night

As children bid the guest good-night,

And then reluctant turn,

My flowers raise their pretty lips,

Then put their nightgowns on.

As children caper when they wake,

Merry that it is morn,

My flowers from a hundred cribs

Will peep, and prance again.

As imperceptibly as grief > > >
