Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far ______ into the silent land;
When you can no more ______ me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to ______ yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day ______ day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late ______ counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget ______ for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
______ if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of ______ thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you ______ forget and smile
Than that you should remember and ______ sad.
