EPITAPH Ws are those unthrlttjr' souls Who watered dusty streets with wine; Gathered pearls from Indian shoals And cast them royally to iwlne; Our most precious love who strowed To be trampled by the crowd: Freely broached our heart' red blood To dye the garments of the proud; Who have sunt away our years To soothe the perjurer and the thief; Poured for the heartiest healing tears: Fed the tyrant with our grief; Paid the price we never owed: Prayed to gods who ask no prayer; Climbed the high encumbered road Net asking why or where. By Martin Armstrong.
