544 <br /> <br />The Martyr Poets—did not tell— <br />But wrought their Pang in syllable— <br />That when their mortal name be numb— <br />Their mortal fate—encourage Some— <br /> <br />The Martyr Painters—never spoke— <br />Bequeathing—rather—to their Work— <br />That when their conscious fingers cease— <br />Some seek in Art—the Art of Peace—<br /><br />Emily Dickinson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-martyr-poets-did-not-tell/
