Poem by Rudyard Kipling

The Appeal

If I have given you delight
By aught that I have done,
Let me lie quiet in that night
Which shall be yours anon:

And for the little, little, span
The dead are borne in mind,
Seek not to questions other than
The books I leave behind.

1. Resolve
2. Jane Smith
3. The Land
4. Index Malorum
5. I Sit in the Midst
