Shall it be mine to die
Where friends and kindred bend afoin, M bal,
Where gentle hands are nigh to lift my head,
And close my faded eye;
Or 10 my drcamless rest
Shall depart, when no kind voice is neal
10 whisper peace into my dying cal
BY mothers prayer unblest
Or shall 1t be whcn all
In earth or sky-breeze, grove, song, leaf, are
still,
And thick on forest, city, ocean, hill,
Nights phantom shadows faP
Shall it he at the hour,
When birds ana halrny airs 'r.,Gs' branches green
F.il : tn sweet sounds and scents each wood
land scene
Where bends the lily-howcrs;
Or shall the invisible wings
or the sad Autumn wind watt up my soul
Through mornings golden halls from earths
CONTROL
And from life's poisoned springs?
And above all shall hone
stand by to charm the terrors of the hour,
lmpart her smile, and give my spirit power
TO drink the fearful cup
Father in Heaven, to Thee,
To Thee bow; thine is the hand to save,
To guard the flower, to tame the hcadlong wave,
And chain the frantic sea.
