SHE WENT AS QUIET AS THE DEW, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
Last Line: It's sorer to believe!
Subject(s): Death; Dew


She went as quiet as the dew
From a familiar flower.
Not like the dew did she return
At the accustomed hour!

She dropt as softly as a star
From out my summer's eve;
Less skilful than Leverrier
It's sorer to believe!
