| Come, said my Soul, | ||
| Such verse for my Body let us write, (for we are one,) | ||
| That should I after death invisibly return, | ||
| Or, long, long hence, in other spheres, | ||
| There to some group of mates the chants resuming, | ||
| (Tallying Earth's soil, trees, winds, tumultuous waves,) | ||
| Ever with pleas'd smile I may keep on, | ||
| Ever and ever yet the verses owning --- as, first, I here and now, | ||
| Signing for Soul and Body, set to them my name, | ||
