If I should die, think only this of me: That theres some corner of a foreign field that is forever England. There shall be in that rich earth a richer dust concealed; a dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware, gave, once, her flowers to love, her ways to roam; a body of Englands breathing English air, washed by the rivers, blest by suns of home. And think, this heart, all evil shed away, a pulse in the eternal mind, no less gives back somewhere the thoughts by England given; her sights and sounds; dreams happy as her day; and laughter, learnt of friends; and gentleness, in hearts at peace, under an English heaven. --Rupert Brooke (1887-1915)
