I Read My Sentence歌词

I read my sentence steadily,
Reviewed it with my eyes,
To see that I made no mistake
In its extremest clause,
　　
The date, and manner of the shame;
And then the pious form
That "God have mercy" on the soul
The jury voted him.
　　
I made my soul familiar
With her extremity,
That at the last it should not be
A novel agony,
　　
But she and Death, acquainted,
Meet tranquilly as friends,
Salute and pass without a hint
And there the matter ends.
