A THOUSAND DEATHS.
A thousand deaths my soul has died By its own growing sloughed and slain; A thousand loves my heart has tried, And every love has been in vain, And thrice denied and crucified, Has hung upon a cross of pain. A thousand deaths! A thousand lives! From life, through death, to life I go; Tha outlived lives I burst like gyves; Each death a larger life I know; I die, and yet my soul survives; I die, and yet by dying grow. —Ronald Cainpbell Macfie, in London Observer.
