your favourite poets . . .
On a Sleeping Friend by Hilaire Belloc
Lady, when your lovely head
Droops to sink among the Dead,
And the quiet places keep
You that so divinely sleep;
Then the dead shall blessed be
With a new solemnity,
For such Beauty, so descending,
Pledges them that Death is ending.
Sleep your fill - but when you wake
Dawn shall over Lethe break.
