POET RY

,e following beautiful linesw;l find respoi
in the bosom of every reader.
A DlRGE,-BY THE Rev, GEO. CRoLY.
"Earth to earth, and dust to Dust"
Here the evil and the Just;
Here the youthful and the old;
Here the fearful and the bold;
Here the matron and the maid,
In one silent bed are laid;
Here the vassal and the king
Side by side lie withenng;
Here the sword and scepter rust;
"Earth to earth, and dust to dust"
Age en- age shall roll along,
O'er this pale and mighty throng;
Those that wept them those that weep,
All shall with these sieepers sleep.
Brothers, sisters Of the worm,
Summers sun, or winters storm,
Song of peace, r battles roar,
Meier shall break their slumbers more;
Death shall keep his sullen trust,
''Earth to earth, and dust to dust"
But day is coming fast,
Earth, thy mightiest and thy last!
1t shall come III fear and wonder,
11eralded by trump and thunder;
1t shall come in strife and toll;
1t shall come in blood and spoil;
It shall come in empires sroans,
Burning temples, trampled thrones;
Then, Ambition, rue thy lust!
iskarth to earth, and dust to dust!'
Then shall come the judgment sign,
In the east, the king shall shine:
Flashing from heavens golden gate,
Thousands, thousands round bis state;
Spirits with the crown and plume;
Tremble then thou solemn tomb.
Heaven shall open on our sight,
Earth be turned to living light,
Kingdom of the ransom'd Just!
E'Earth to earth, and dust to dust"
Then thy mount, Jerusalem,
Shall be gorgeous as a gem;
Then shall III the desert rise
Fruits of more than Paradise;
Earth by angels feet be trod;
One great garden of her God!
Till are dried the martyrs tears;
Through a thousand glorious years!
Now IN hope of him we trust,
"Earth to earth, and dust to Dust"
