Death & Dying
Translation of the Epitaph on Virgil and Tibullus, by Domitius Marsus
From Works, ed. Coleridge, vol. I (1898)
Death & Dying
He who, sublime, in epic numbers roll'd,
And he who struck the softer lyre of Love,
By Death's unequal hand alike controul'd,
Fit comrades in Elysian regions move!
