COE Inc leieSIapns
"Say will our spirits wear obliyion's chains
Will death forever quench our hopes and fears!',
And is it SO! Are all our hopes
OF bliss beyond the grave
But ''airy nothings?" Is there nought
The soul from death to saver
o say, doth not the spirit rise
Above the power of DEATH
Or is its light forever quenched
With the expiring BREATH
When grief and anguish rack the soul.
We find how cold and vain
Are earthly joys-tho' all are tried,
No solace we obtain.
But far above the mists of earth,
How doth the spirit rise,
Rejoiced by faith to view that land,
"Where pleasure never dies.'
And is it all deluson vain' M
Doth that bright world of bliss
But i'll the s'poets fancy'' dwelIi
Is there no life but this'-
And this SO thickly strown with woes,
That each returning day
Brings its own sorrows till we view
The morrow with dismay.
Oh why is planted in the soul
1hatthirst for nober joy,
Ifthere is not bssful realm,
Where griefcan meier alloy'
And why desires which earth hath not
The power to satisfy
If when the breath departs, the soul
Doth then forever die.
1t cannot be-the godlike mind
Was not to mortals given,
For earth alone--but for the pure
Enduring joys of Heaven. II.
