Explore "In Memoriam" by Alfred Tennyson on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Thy spirit ere our fatal loss / Did ever rise from high to higher; / As mounts the heavenward altar-fire, / As flies the lighter thro' the gross.
But thou art turn'd to something strange, / And I have lost the links that bound / Thy changes; here upon the ground; / No more partaker of thy change.
