DiRn,


mfeld, on the 9th ult., WILLIAM Smith, aged oo
Weep not for him who left in peace
This world of aeeting years,
To sing the song ofkeayenly grace
And triumph o'er earth's fears
Weep not for him, the immortal wreath
Is twining o'er his brow,
Blooming not earths pale bloom
But ever bright as now.
Weep not for him, it was his choice
To seek that blest abode,
To mingle with departed ones
And meet his Savior God.
His soul was wearied Of lfe's path,
Where thorns grew mid the flowers,
And tears and sorrows mingled with
Lfe's cup of feeting hours.
Weep not him. death had no sting
To cloud his peaceful mind,
He longed to meet his dying hour,
home in Heaven to find.
For freely had his spirit drank
e. =. OF Heavens own gospel fount, --.
Which raised it from the things of earth
To feast upon the Mount.
Weep not, he greets happy band
Around his fathers throne,
Where hopes no longer bud to blast,
Where death no more is known.
