Departed this life. Jan. I, 1851, in the town
of L~ithopolis, EMMA MARIA DRUM, only
daughter Of George and Catharine Drum, aget
3 years and 5 months.
Bright, beauteous bud-of opening bloom
Giving fair promise, alas! how soon
Nipt by the blighting breath
or winters stern, relentless blast,
While nom could rescue from the grasp
otthat dread Tyrant, death.
Insaiiate archerl could'st thou come,
To tear this idol from its throne,
With unaverted dartl
Could rot a mothers anguiShed sighs,
Her tears, her prayers. her pleading cries,
Melt cen thy stony hearth
Alas (! that loved andonly one,
From their embrace is rudely torn,
And shrouded for the tomb,
A few brief moments onward sped,
And hope and Joy and comfortfled
Forever from their home.
Can this be death!-so loyely--fair--
Is this his signet, Craven there
On that pure brow so deep!
How beauteous now, that Angel form!
That cherub smilel how sweet and calm
That lasting, dreamless sleep!
" r#-.H f"
Those glossy r%inglets, clustering now
In rich profaslon round that brow,
So lovely, fair and bright
Whilst thou seemest gently hushed asleep
AS watchers over thy slumbers deep,
Have softly breathed good night
Those little hands, so full and fair,
Resting in holy calmneSs there
Upon thy peaceful breast;
Clasping sweet NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. bright,
or one who's now enthroned in light,
Mid those supremely blest.
A lovely bud--of beauty rare,
Just opening here so fresh and fairl
To be transplanted now;
To yield more rich, and sweet perfume,
And there in brighter beauty bloom,
Never again to bow
Beneath the adverse storms OF earth, g.
Or winters chill and whitening breath.
Or autumn's piercing Llast,
But fresh in beauty'S ~loyeliest scenes,
To bask where summers radiant beams,
Will there forever last.
Sweet little one! we may not weep,
That thou in dreamless slumbers deep,
Art early laid to rest;
Folded within the Saviour's arm,
We know thou'rt safe from every harm,
While pillowed on His breast.
And OIL what rapturous JOY is thinel
What dazzling %glories round thee shine
In thy new, blissful home;
Filling thy little heart with peace,
For there the Saviour's kingdom is
Composed Of such, sweet one! p
Thou vert lovely here--but ~love,ier far,
We see thee now! brilliant star!
In Heavens bright diadem!
Adorned with an immortal crown
, , OF FURNISHED goldl triumphant won!
! A sparkling, Process gem!
Then do not weep, though from your home
:. Your hearts dear idol has been torn,
Your sweetest comfort fed!
Though while sweet flowers at springs retl
Will brightly bloom-you still must mourn
Your l~oveliest low'ret, dead.
For smiling hope, With beck'ning hand,
Points to that sainted spirit-land,
Where all may joyful meet
With those loved ones who've gone before
To dwell with the IN forevernorc,
And hold com munion sweet.
Then fare thee well--a few more years,
As pilgrims in this vale Of tears
We yet pay finger here;
Ere we rejoin thee in thy home,
J Where no long farewell hour is known,
] No sadly parting tear. ADELIA
