Of war, and died
Digging the rock where Death reputes
Peace lies indeed.”

“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)
“Eyes spiritualised by death can judge,
I cannot, but I am not content.”
