James Whitcomb Riley - The RivalJames Whitcomb Riley - The Rival
Work rating: Low


I so loved once, when Death came by I hid   Away my face,   And all my sweetheart`s tresses she undid   To make my hiding-place.   The dread shade passed me thus unheeding; and   I turned me then   To calm my love--kiss down her shielding hand   And comfort her again.   And lo! she answered not: And she did sit   All fixedly,   With her fair face and the sweet smile of it,   In love with Death, not me.
