Good-bye, Walt!
Good-bye, from all you loved of earth—-
Rock, tree, dumb creature, man and woman—
To you, their comrade human.
The last assault
Ends now ; and now in some great world has birth
A minstrel, whose strong soul finds broader wings,
More brave imaginings.
Stars crown the hilltop where your dust shall lie,

Even as we say good—bye,
Good-bye, old Walt!
