THE TWO SPIRITS by JAMES BENJAMIN KENYON

First Line: I DREAMED TWO SPIRITS CAME - ONE DUSK AS NIGHT
Last Line: "MEN NAME ME DEATH."

I DREAMED two spirits came -- one dusk as night:
"Mortals miscall me Life," he sadly saith;
The other, with a smile like morning light,
Flashed his strong wings and spake,
"Men name me Death."
