AN EPITAPH, by JOSEPHINE DEPHINE HENDERSON HEARD First Line: When I am gone Last Line: "but mary-like, ""she hath done what she could." | |||
When I am gone, Above me raise no lofty stone Perfect in human handicraft, No upward pointing gleaming shaft. Say this of me, and I be content, That in the Master's work my life was spent; Say not that I was either great or good, But Mary-like, "She hath done what she could." | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THEY ARE COMING? by JOSEPHINE DEPHINE HENDERSON HEARD TO WHITTIER by JOSEPHINE DEPHINE HENDERSON HEARD ECHOES: 35.
