A Question Annotated

Joy comes and goes, hope ebbs and flows
&nbspLike the wave;
Change doth unknit the tranquil strength of men.
Love lends life a little grace,
A few sad smiles; and then,
Both are laid in one cold place,
&nbspIn the grave.

Dreams dawn and fly, friends smile and die
&nbspLike spring flowers;
Our vaunted life is one long funeral.
Men dig graves with bitter tears
For their dead hopes; and all,
Mazed with doubts and sick with fears,
&nbspCount the hours.

We count the hours! These dreams of ours,
&nbspFalse and hollow,
Do we go hence and find they are not dead?
Joys we dimly apprehend,
Faces that smiled and fled,
Hopes born here, and born to end,
&nbspShall we follow?
