I died for beauty, but was scarce
Adjusted in the tomb,
When one who died for truth was lain
In an adjoining room,,
He questioned softly why I failed?
'For beauty,I replied.
And I for truth -the two are one.,
We brethren are,he said.
And so,as kinsmen met a- night,
We talked between the rooms,
Until the moss had reached our lips,
And covered up our names,
