How sleep the brave by William Collins.

HOW sleep the brave

who sink to rest
By all their country’s wishes blest!
When Spring, with dewy fingers cold,
Returns to deck their hallowed mold,
She there shall dress a sweeter sod
Than Fancy’s feet have ever trod.

By fairy hands their knell is rung
By forms unseen their dirge is sung;
There Honor comes, a pilgrim gray,
To bless the turf that wraps their clay;
And Freedom shall awhile repair,
To dwell a weeping hermit there!

    I like this painting. And the concept of old hermits. I wonder if I'll be an old hermit. 😅, In some ways I already am. 😅

    I see your way is pretty clear... if you are hermit already then you just need keep alive for about half century to reach your goal.😂 I like your reading👍

    @Shamus is this hermit from Russia? It's an important ability to stay alone and enjoy the life, your inner life.

    @Shamus he is wearing bast shoes (lapty лапти in Russian ). I wondered who was the painter of this. I have found him. https://images.app.goo.gl/tEiB2teXCbMjca2H7 He is Russian. The painter is Nesterov.

    @Irina June Sun Wow. Thank you for sharing! I actually figured him Russian because of the hat! So thank you for the lesson about the shoes.
