Jessie B. Rittenhouse, ed. (1869–1948).  The Little Book of Modern Verse.  1917.
 
122. Sentence
 
By Witter Bynner
 
 
SHALL I say that what heaven gave
  Earth has taken?—
Or that sleepers in the grave
  Reawaken?
 
One sole sentence can I know,        5
  Can I say:
You, my comrade, had to go,
  I to stay.
