Poem by Thomas Hardy

Epitaph on a Pessimist

I’m Smith of Stoke, aged sixty-odd,
        I’ve lived without a dame
From youth-time on; and would to God
        My Dad had done the same.

1. At the Word ‘Farewell’
2. The Three Tall Men
3. The Supplanter
4. Afternoon Service at Mellstock
5. Sitting on the Bridge
