Alexander Search – Endings

[BNP/E3, 78 – 99-100]

 

A. Search.

 

Private poems.

 

Alexander Search.

 

[99ar]

 

To choose from

Some indifferent.

 

[100r]

 

Songs.

 

Endings.

 

Farewells, departures, goings - these are most sad:

They are endings, dissolutions; they drive sentiment mad.

Even the fall of priests, of tyrants, of slaves and of kings

Has the bitterness and the sadness of the finishing of things.

 

Alexander Search.

 

December 27th. 1907.
