Show The Last Word. Creep Into thy narrow bed. Creep and let no more be said. Vain thy onset! AH stand fast. Thou thyself must break at last. Let the long contention cease! Geese are swans and swans are frees. I-.et them have it how they will! Thou art tired; best be still. They oultalked thee, hlss'd thee, tor thee? Better men fared thus before thee; Fired their ringing shot and pass'd. Hotly charged and sank at last. Charge once more, then, and be dumb! Let the victors, when they come, When the forts of folly fall, Find thy body by the wall! Matthew Arnold. |
