What poem made Robert Browning famous?

I

Good to forgive
Best to forget!
Living, we fret
Dying, we live.
Fretless and free,
Soul, clap thy pinion!
Earth have dominion,
Body, o'er thee!

II

Wander at will,
Day after day
Wander away,
Wandering still
Soul that canst soar!
Body may slumber
Body shall cumber
Soul-flight no more.

III

Waft of soul's wing!
What lies above?
Sunshine and love,
Sky-blue and Spring!
Body hides—where?
Ferns of all feather,
Mosses and heather,
Yours be the care!

—Robert Browning
