When I Died in Berners Street by Elinor Wylie When I died in Berners Street I remember well That I had lights at head and feet And a passing bell. But when I died in Houndsditch There came to lay me out A washerwoman and a witch; The rats ran about. When I died in Holburn In and old house and tall I know the tapestry was torn And hanging from the wall. When I died in Marylebone I was saying my prayers; There I died all alone Up four flights of stairs. But when I died near Lincoln's Inn The small gold I had Surrounded me with kith and kin; I died stark mad. When I died in Bloomsbury In the bend of your arm, At the end I died merry And comforted and warm.
