Question:Mine is "A Valediction: Forbidding Mourning"


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Mine is "A Valediction: Forbidding Mourning"

Okay, it's probably corny, but I still like "Death be not proud>"

Elegy 19! Sexy, with lines that really stick with the reader: "License my roving hands, and let them go/
Behind before, above, between, below./ Oh my America, my new found land,/ My kingdom, safeliest when with one man manned."
