WHITHER?

Whither, whither, whither borne
O'er the great deep tempest-torn?
Far away, oh far away,
While I sleep not night or day.
Dream of an inspired delight
Fled into the dark of night!
Vision of a poet's brain
Gathered back to God again!
Whither, whither, whither borne
O'er the great deep tempest-torn?
Far away, oh far away,
Would that in the grave I lay.
