	Poem by Bryan Waller Procter Life WE are born; we laugh; we weep; We love; we droop; we die! Ah! wherefore do we laugh or weep? Why do we live, or die? Who knows that secret deep? Alas, not I! Why doth the violet spring Unseen by human eye? Why do the radiant seasons bring Sweet thoughts that quickly fly? Why do our fond hearts cling To things that die? We toil,�through pain and wrong; We fight,�and fly; We love; we lose; and then, ere long, Stone-dead we lie. O life! is all thy song �Endure and�die�?
