WHEN ALL IS DONE When all is done and ray last word is said, And ye who loved me murmur,"He is Dead," Let no one weep, for fear that I should know, And sorrow too that ye should sorrow so When all is done, say not my day is oer, And that thro night I seek a dimmer shore5 Say rather that my morn has just begun, I greet the dawn and not a setting sun, When all is done.
Paul Lawerence Dunbar
