At Ease 


Most wounds can time repair 

But some are mortal     these

For a broken heart there is no balm


At ease but cold as stone

Though the intellect spin on


Nought of the life that is gone


But smiles as by  habit taught

And sighs as by custom led 

And the soul within is safe from damnation

Since it is dead
