Catherine - Part 10

Kitty's dying! I can see
How her cheek grows pale and paler;
Yet, ah, miserable me!
I must leave her now and fail her.

Kitty's dying! and her bed
Will be soon the churchyard cold;
And she knows it! Yet, for each,
She is thoughtful as of old.

And she begs, this coming winter,
To protect me from its harm,
I will wear the lamb's-wool stockings
She has knitted for me warm.
