EPITATH ON AN ENGRAVER by HENRY DAVID THOREAU

Poet Analysis

First Line: BY DEATH'S FAVOR
Last Line: HE NE'ER WILL GET TRANSLATED TO THE SKIES.
Subject(s): ENGRAVING AND ENGRAVERS; EPITAPHS;
By death's favor
Here lies the engraver
And now I think o't
Where lies he not?
If the archangel look but where he lies
He ne'er will get translated to the skies.
