    6. Debbie L. 6 Illness A poem like "Nothing to Save" says little of what it was like for Lawrence during the last months of his life. He felt like almost giving up to illness (tuberculosis) and death. Yet, still miraculously alive. That was what living meant, to him: There is nothing to save, now all is lost, but a tiny core of stillness in the heart like the eye of a violet. (Comp Poems 658) Dies at Vence in South of France on March 2, 1930.
