These words form the first line of the following poem by Olaf Douwes Dekker:

STROMEND ZILVER

de oude stad wast zich uit water omhoog
een onzichtbare hand bladert de jaren, het
gedempte zilver stroomt alle tranen droog

bruggen, bomen, klinkers en kaden trekken
de stad in haar voegen terug, door het water
de koning te rijk vloeit het leven van later

BATTIGNOLES

Un grand bloc de grès; quatre noms: mon père
Et ma mère et moi, puis mon fils bien tard
Dans l'étroite paix du plat cimetière
Blanc et noir et vert, au long du rempart.

Cinq tables de grès; le tombeau nu, fruste,
En un carré long, haut d'un mètre et plus,
Qu'une chaîne entoure et décore juste,
Au bas du faubourg qui ne bruit plus.

C'est de là que la trompette de l'ange
Fera se dresser nos corps ranimés
Pour la vie enfin qui jamais ne change,
O vous, père et mère et fils bien-aimés.

From the collection 'Amour', 1888.
