His life was charmed to all who knew His gentle ways and loving heart, He loved mankind and ever sought To do his best, and play his part. Who lives to benefit the world, While he sojourns, and kindness spread, A benediction, leaves to all, He lives always, he is not dead. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SONNETS FROM THE PORTUGUESE: 27 by ELIZABETH BARRETT BROWNING DOWNFALL OF POLAND [FALL OF WARSAW, 1794] by THOMAS CAMPBELL WHEN DE CO'N PONE'S HOT by PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR A NIGHT-PIECE ON DEATH by THOMAS PARNELL IMPROMPTU TO LADY WINCHILSEA by ALEXANDER POPE THE IDEA by AGNES MARY F.
