Yet forever, yea, forever we shall see thee rising thus,
See the first supernal glory, not the ruin hideous.

Still forever, fare thee well:

'Gainst thee shall my heart rebel.

Never here, forever there,
Where all parting, pain, and care,
And death, and time shall disappear,—
Forever there, but never here!

Sayeth this incessantly,—
"Forever — never!
Never — forever!"
