Alternate Author Name(s): Faulks, Frederick J., Mrs.
Subject(s): Greetings
WE were alone what time you said
Your last farewell to me,
Ere yet you joined the happy dead
In their fair company.
God send our meeting be like this
In Heaven's loneliest ring,
Lest angels envy us the bliss
Of that first welcoming.
