  • first line (public domain):
    Beautiful Evelyn Hope is dead!
         Sit and watch by her side and hour.
    That is her book-shelf, this her bed;
         She plucked that piece of geranium-flower,
    Beginning to die too, in the glass.
         Little has yet been changed, I think —
    The shutters are shut, no light may pass
         Save two long rays thro' the hinge's chink.
