Afraid? Of whom am I afraid? Not death; for who is he? The porter of my father's lodge As much abasheth me.

Of life? 'T were odd I fear a thing That comprehendeth me In one or more existences At Deity's decree.

Of resurrection? Is the east Afraid to trust the morn With her fastidious forehead? As soon impeach my crown!

  "summary": "The poem explores the theme of fear and the speaker's contemplation of death, life, and resurrection. It begins with the speaker questioning whom they might fear, dismissing the concept of fearing death by comparing it to a familiar presence, likening death to a trusted servant at their father's estate. The speaker then considers the paradox of fearing life, which is an integral part of existence determined by a higher power. Furthermore, the poem challenges the notion of fearing resurrection, likening it to the morning light confidently rising without hesitation. Through these reflections, the speaker conveys a sense of peace or acceptance regarding the mysteries and uncertainties of existence.",
