First Line: "DISHEVELLED AND IN TEARS, GO, SONG OF MINE"
Last Line: TO SEEK ITS MAKER AT THE HEAVENLY SHRINE
Subject(s): GRIEF;TEARS; SORROW;SADNESS;

DISHEVELLED and in tears, go, song of mine,
To break the hardness of the heart of man:
Say how his life began
From dust, and in that dust doth sink supine:
Yet, say, the unerring spirit of grief shall guide
His soul, being purified,
To seek its Maker at the heavenly shrine.
