HOW TO LIVE.

HOW TO LIVE.
So live that when thy summons
comes to join
The innumerable caravan which
moves
To that mysterious realm where
each shall take
His chamber in the silent halls
of death
Thou so not, like the quarry
slave at night,
Scourged to his dungeon, but,
sustained and soothed
BY an unfaltering trust, APP
proach thy grave
like one that wraps the drapery
of his couch
About him and lies down to
pleasant dreams.
William Cullen Bryant.
