A poem by Thomas Hardy

Her Temple

________________________________________________
Title:     Her Temple
Author: Thomas Hardy [More Titles by Hardy]

Dear, think not that they will forget you:
--If craftsmanly art should be mine
I will build up a temple, and set you
Therein as its shrine.

They may say: "Why a woman such honour?"
--Be told, "O, so sweet was her fame,
That a man heaped this splendour upon her;
None now knows his name."
