GAY Summer has flown 10 his isles in the
ocean,
where the spice breezes Goat DER the ever

And Autumn advances in dresry commo,ion,
TO s,rew its dry leaves DER the Family Grave.
'Tis not the high tomb, with it's legends o
glory,
That he band Of affection here bossiugly
rcsi'd,
The vaults Of The great seldom teach us the story
ofvir'ues and ieewgs TO friendship endesr a.
Indeed, the proud dome, in the church yard
discloses,
How weak, and how vain, 10 the fame we
there craze
One PLAIN marbie slab, midst cluster of roses,
Tells the stsAUger that there is the Family
Graye.
In this lone bsiIow'd spot, how calmly tbeyslum.
her
Nv Father. and brothers. and Sisters, and all
The warm hearted friends, have seen without
number
Like win,ry leaves wi,her. and round me then
Tho the whispers of Pity be heard on life's
Or the Storm of dark envy burst wild on its
wave,
The voice Of the charmer falls not on their
pillow:
No troubles Of earth reach the family grave.
How bIest is the eve. when its las. ray has dar
Der the summer fly, wOoins the tremulou,
leaf,
For spirits Of earth, to meet spirits departed;
And call back, once more, all their joy and
their grief!
The wild throb Of love--he sear'd blight oil
affection;
Each smile aud zach tear that our dear PEG
pie gave,
The examples they left us-iheir las. benedic'
tioa--
All rise up, as shades. from the Family Grave
And sad were those views Of the friends Of oul
childhood,
If they did Nc, bring With them bles, scene,
The Aksr-thc Fire side-the greens Sunny
wild wood,
Where we've joined them, and lov'd them,
and met them the last.
bot here let them rest, i'm the sunshine Of feeling
midst the ruins Of time that man could moi
save,
AS the last beams Of day, on the church.ysrd
now stealing,
To hallow the sleep os,he Family Grave.
And hero lie, me rest, with those pilgrims long
vending,
To the inn Of repose. whence they never can
roam,
'Tin the Angel Of Mercy, in triumph descend

Shall cross the Graves Jordaa and call then
all home.
Then life shall arise from deaths dark domn

And freedom shall come to the sin wearied
slave:
Then glory shall burst on each widely stre'ch'd
