    “For ‘tis not in mere death that men die most.”

    “Farewell deare flowers, sweetly your time ye spent,
    Fit, while ye liv’d, for smell or ornament,
    And after death for cures.
    I follow straight without complaints or grief,
    Since if my sent be good, I care not, if
    It be as short as yours.”
    —George Herbert (1593–1633)
