Edgar Allan Poe: Poems of Edgar Allan Poe

62. A PAEAN (continued)

From more than fiends on earth,
    Thy life and love are riven,
To join the untainted mirth
    Of more than thrones in heaven -

XII.

Therefore, to thee this night
    I will no requiem raise,
But waft thee on thy flight,
    With a Paean of old days.
