From the poem, Life, by Anna Letitia Barbauld (1743–1825), a prominent English poet, essayist, literary critic, editor, and children's author, these lines...
Life! we have been long together,
Through pleasant and through cloudy weather;
'Tis hard to part when friends are dear;
Perhaps 'twill cost a sigh, a tear;—
Then steal away, give little warning,
Choose thine own time;
Say not Good-night, but in some brighter clime
Bid me Good-morning!
