《I died for Beauty》
I died for Beauty - but was
scarce
Adjusted in the Tomb
When One who died for Truth,
was lain
In an adjoining Room -
He questioned softly "Why I
failed"?
"For Beauty", I replied -
"And I - for Truth - Themself
are One -
We Brethren are", He said -
And so, as Kinsmen, met a Night —
We talked between the Rooms -
Until the Moss had reached our
lips -
And covered up - Our names -
