Lifes tragedy again.
Rs piteous psgeanls bring not back
Nor waken aesh, upon the rack
OF pain anew to ~rithej
stretch'd in diseases shapes abhors'Gs
Or mown IN battle by the sword.
Like grass beneath the scythc.
Ev'n sm weary in yon skies
To watch thy fading FIRE;
Test Of all sunless sgones,
Behold not me expire.
My lips. tha, speak thy dirge OF deatn,
Their rounded gasp and gurgIiDg breath
To see thou shalt not boast,
The eclipse Of Nature spreads my pslk
The majesty OF darkness shalt
Receive nay parting ghost
This spirit shall retire to- Him
That gave its hesveniy sparks
fct. think not, sun. 1t shalt be dim
When thou thyself art dark
No il shall live again, aud shine
IN bliss unknown to beams OF thine,
by Him recali'd TO breath,
Who captive led captivity,
Who robb'd the grave of Victory.
Aud took the sting from Death!
Go, Sun, while Mercy holds me up
On Natures awful waste
To drink this last and bitter cup
Of grief that man shall taste
Go, tell the night that hides thy fsse,
Thou saw'st The las, Of Adams race,
On Earth's sepulohral clod,
The dark ming universe defy
To quench his immortality.
Or shake his trust in God
