Many Voices/A Parting

So good-bye! This is where we end it, you and I. Life's to live, you know, and death's to die; So good-bye!

I was yours For the love in life that loves while life endures, For the earth-path that the Heaven-flight ensures I was yours.

You were mine For the moment that a garland takes to twine, For the human hour that sorcery shews divine You were mine.

All is over. You and I no more are love and lover; Nought's to seek now, gain, attain, discover. All is over.
