It is a requiem for the poet’s friend Arthur Henry Hallam, divided into 133 cantos and written in four-line stanzas of iambic tetrameter; the rhyme scheme is ABBA.The verses quoted are from the last stanza of the XXVII canto
I hold it true, whate'er befall;
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
‘Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.
