Classic and Contemporary Poetry

O.A. by WALTER JOHN DE LA MARE

Poet Analysis

First Line: WHO: AND HOW: AND WHERE: AND WHEN
Last Line: STILL WITH THEIR LAST BREATH, WHY?
Subject(s): EPITAPHS;
Who: and How: and Where: and When --
Tell their stones of these poore men.
Grudge not then if one be bare
Of Who, and How, and When, and Where.

Such is nought to them who sigh
Still with their last breath, Why?
