Freedom and Ease from Strife

John Swinnerton Phillimore, "Lermontov's Despair," lines 9-12, Things New and Old (Oxford: Humphrey Milford, 1918), p. 22:
No, there is naught I look for now in life,
   For nothing in the past I feel regret:
Freedom is all I seek, and ease from strife.
   Ah, could a man sleep soundly and forget!
