Our very hopes belied our fears, Our fears our hopes belied; We thought her dying when she slept, And sleeping when she died.

Thomas Hood
Fear, Sleep, Dying
Thomas Hood (1860). “The Poetical Works of Thomas Hood”, p.170
Our very hopes belied our fears, Our fears our hopes belied; We thought her dying when she slept, And sleeping when she died.
