I strove with none,
for none was worth my strive;
Nature I loved,
and next to Nature, Art;
I warm'd both hands before the fire of Life;
It sinks;
and I am ready to depart
for none was worth my strive;
Nature I loved,
and next to Nature, Art;
I warm'd both hands before the fire of Life;
It sinks;
and I am ready to depart
