Poet Analysis

First Line: FAREWELL! - AND NEVER THINK OF ME
Last Line: THEN -- AND THEN ONLY -- THINK OF ME!
Subject(s): FAREWELL; PARTING;

FAREWELL! -- and never think of me
In lighted hall or lady's bower!
Farewell! -- and never think of me
In spring sunshine or summer hour! --
But when you see a lonely grave,
Just where a broken heart might be,
With not one mourner by its sod,
Then -- and then only -- THINK OF ME!
