There is no firesde howsoeer defended,

The air is full of farewes to the dying

Will not be comforted!
Let us be patient! these severe affections
Not from the ground arise,
But oftentimes celestial benedictons
Assume this dark disguise.

Amid these earthly damps,

Whose portal we call DEATH

But gone unto that school,
Where he no longer needs our poor protection
And Christ himself doth rule.

Safe from temptation, safe from sins pollution,

Day after day we think what he is doing
In those bright realms Of air;
Year after year, his tender steps pursuing,
Behold him grown more fair.
Thus do walk with him, and keep unbroken
The bond which nature gives,
Thinking that remembrance, though unbroken,
May reach him where he lives.
Not ss child shall we again behold him;
For when with rapture wild
In our embraces again enfold him,
He will not be a child.
But fair angel, in his fathers mansion,
Clothed with celestial grace;
And beautiful with all the souls expansion
Shall behold his face.
And though at times, impeluous with emotion
And anguish long suppressed,
