Thus Let Me Live

This is what Garlic Boy says under his breath each day right before class hoping that he won't get called on by the professors:

Thus let me live, unseen, unknown,
Thus unlamented let me die,
Steal from the world, and not a stone
Tell where I lie.

Alexander Pope
Ode on Solitude [c. 1700], st. 5
