VI) of the Requiem that I composed in 2007, as performed by the Orlando Chamber Singers under the direction of Gregory Ruffer on May 18, 2008.

"Life's work well done,
Life's race well run,
Life's crown well won,

If [they] have given you delight
By aught that [they] have done,
Let [them] lie quiet in that night
Which shall be yours anon:
And for that little, little span
The dead are borne in mind
Seek not to question other than
The [deeds] [they] leave behind.
