  Tread lightly, she is near
  Under the snow,
  Speak gently, she can hear
  The daisies grow.
  
  All her bright golden hair
  Tarnished with rust,
  She that was young and fair
  Fallen to dust.
  
  Lily-like, white as snow,
  She hardly knew
  She was a woman, so
  Sweetly she grew.
  
  Coffin-board, heavy stone,
  Lie on her breast,
  I vex my heart alone,
  She is at rest.
  
  Peace, peace, she cannot hear
  Lyre or sonnet,
  All my life's buried here,
  Heap earth upon it.  less
