The Grave of MARY

Vlac Grave of NHaFy.
Yes, hero she lies in dreamless sleep,
uore with movcless lips she lios;
Here she rests in slumbers deep,
Ever with unclosing Dyes!
Yos, here she rests-the brilliant bloom
That once bcdecked her smiling face,
Is faded in The blighting tomb,
And naught can that fled bloom replace.
1Iore lies my Mary day by day.
|icf beauteous check grew stil moro
wan,
And faster grew the pale decay,
Until shuddettd-f man
Well, passing strange, at length she died !
And left inc and two lovely ones alono
! stood the breathless clay beside,
Almost incapable oftcar or groan.
Here lies my Mary! touch the st4ad !
Does it not send a very chill!
Cold as this 'narble's face her own,
And white as this SHE sIumbers still
Hero sleeps Hho swcetly-faltor not,
For sound can never reach her ear:
How can I but deplore my lot
