Explore "In Memoriam" by Alfred Tennyson on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
In those sad words I took farewell: / Like echoes in sepulchral halls, / As drop by drop the water falls / In vaults and catacombs, they fell;
And, falling, idly broke the peace / Of hearts that beat from day to day, / Half-conscious of their dying clay, / And those cold crypts where they shall cease.
