Sapphic Fragment

________________________________________________
Title:     Sapphic Fragment
Author: Thomas Hardy [More Titles by Hardy]

"Thou shalt be--Nothing."--OMAR KHAYYAM.
"Tombless, with no remembrance."--W. SHAKESPEARE.

Dead shalt thou lie; and nought
Be told of thee or thought,
For thou hast plucked not of the Muses' tree:
And even in Hades' halls
Amidst thy fellow-thralls
No friendly shade thy shade shall company!


[The end]
Thomas Hardy's poem: Sapphic Fragment
