WALK SLOWLY

         IF YOU SHOULD GO BEFORE ME, dear, walk slowly

         Down the ways of death, well-worn and wide,

         For I would want to overtake you quickly

         And seek the journey’s ending by your side.

         I would be so forlorn not to descry you

         Down some shining highroad when I came;

         Walk slowly, dear, and often look behind you

         And pause to hear if someone calls your name.
