HEREDITY

I am the family face;
Flesh perishes, I live on,
Projecting trait and trace
Through time to times anon,
And leaping from place to place
Over oblivion.
The years-heired feature that can
In curve and voice and eye

408

Despise the human span
Of durance—that is I;
The eternal thing in man,
That heeds no call to die.
