In Memoriam A.H.H.
I
trust I have not wasted breath:
I think we are not wholly brain,
Magnetic mockeries; not in vain,
Like
Paul with beasts, I fought with Death;
Not
only cunning casts in clay:
Let Science prove we are, and then
What matters Science unto men,
At
least to me? I would not stay.
Let
him, the wiser man who springs
Hereafter, up from childhood shape
His action like the greater ape,
But
I was born to other things.
