The death of a beautiful woman is, unquestionably, the most poetical topic in the world.

Poetry is the rhythmical creation of beauty in words.

To elevate the soul, poetry is necessary.

Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow-
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.
