Ocupation: Novelist

Life: November 22, 1819 - December 22, 1880

Birthday: November 22

Death: December 22

Let thy chief terror be of thine own soul: There, 'mid the throng of hurrying desires That trample o'er the dead to seize their spoil, Lurks vengeance, footless, irresistible As exhaltations laden with slow death, And o'er the fairest troop of captured joys Breathes pallid pestilence.
