How Did You Die?
Did you tackle that trouble that came your
way With a resolute heart and cheerful? Or hide
your face from the light of day With a craven
soul and fearful? Oh, a troubles a ton, or a
troubles an ounce, Or a trouble is what you
make it. And it isnt the fact that youre hurt
that counts, But only how did you take it?

How Did You Die?
You are beaten to earth? Well, well, whats
that? Come up with a smiling face. Its nothing
against you to fall down flat, But to lie
therethats disgrace. The harder youre thrown,
why the higher you bounce Be proud of your
blackened eye! It isnt the fact that youre
licked that counts Its how did you fight and
why?...

How Did You Die?
And though you be done to death, what then? If
you battled the best you could If you played
your part in the world of men, Why, the Critic
will call it good. Death comes with a crawl, or
comes with a pounce, And whether hes slow or
spry, It isnt the fact that youre dead that
counts, But only, how did you die? -Edmund
Vance Cooke
