 In this passage from the poem "Thanatopsis" by William Cullen Bryant, the author expresses that upon our death, we will "rest" alongside various noble and significant figures. There will be "patriarchs" (denoting parents, family heads, or prominent male figures) from the time when Earth was still young ("the infant world"). This part of the poem specifically addresses the notion that at the point of death, we all find solace together in a vast grave, portrayed by the author as a positive outcome.
