Who will say farewell?
The beating bell.
Will anyone miss me?
That I dare not tell —
Quick, Rose, and kiss me.

Additional quotes by Cecil Day-Lewis

Is it birthday weather for you, dear soul?
Is it fine your way

Tempt me no more, for I
Have known the lightning's hour,
The poet's inward pride,
The certainty of power.

Put out the lights now!
Look at the Tree, the rough tree dazzled
In oriole plumes of flame,
Tinselled with twinkling frost fire, tasselled
With stars and moons

Who will say farewell? The beating bell. Will anyone miss me? That I dare not tell — Quick, Rose, and kiss me. - Cecil Day-Lewis
