To know just how He suffered - would be dear - To know if any Human eyes were near To whom He could entrust His wavering gaze - Until it settle firm - on Paradise - To know if He was patient - part content - Was Dying as He thought - or different - Was it a pleasant Day to die - And did the Sunshine face His way -
What was His furthest mind - Of Home - or God - Or What the Distant say - At news that He ceased Human nature Such a Day -
And Wishes - Had He Any - Just His Sigh - Accented - Had been legible - to Me - And was He Confident until Ill fluttered out - in Everlasting Well -
And if He spoke - What name was Best - What first What One broke off with At the Drowsiest -
Was He afraid - or tranquil - Might He know How Conscious Consciousness - could grow - Till Love that was - and Love too best to be - Meet - and the Junction be Eternity.
