Explore "Judgment" by Ambrose Bierce on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
I drew aside the Future's veil / And saw upon his bier / The poet Whitman. Loud the wail / And damp the falling tear.
"He's dead -- he is no more!" one cried, / With sobs of sorrow crammed; / "No more? He's this much more," replied / Another: "he is damned!"
1885.
