My Spirit will not Haunt the Mound

Explore "My Spirit will not Haunt the Mound" by Thomas Hardy on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.

MY spirit will not haunt the mound / Above my breast, / But travel, memory-possessed, / To where my tremulous being found / Life largest, best.

My phantom-footed shape will go / When nightfall grays / Hither and thither along the ways / I and another used to know / In backward days.

And there you'll find me, if a jot / You still should care / For me, and for my curious air; / If otherwise, then I shall not, / For you, be there.
