THE BURIVL OF THE BELOVED.

Come to her bier, Oh J! come
Scatter flowers fair and bright
On her gaib OF purest while,
Ere we bear her home
Lay them gently on her breast,
There nov sweet shall be Thy rest
Go 10 the forest wild,
Gull The viole S pnre and sweet,
Place them on The cay.cold feet
OF the angel child
Embems Of thyself, pale one:
Soon ihe've blossom'd, faded, gone.
All! close the waxen lid,
Let The fringe OF golden hue
Shadow o'er the orb OF blue,
Let the world be hid
From the soui that dwells above, st
Midst the holy angels love.
Call TO The sorrowing one,
That she may bid the dead FAREWELL,
Ere We bear her away 10 dwell
In the daiksome tomb alone,
Draw near, fond mother kiss thy adieu,
For soon The beloved will be absent from you.
Gaze on her angel face;
Wipe the death. dew from her brow;
Come, pale mother, and clasp her now
In thy warm embrace,
Bend on her, lie. thy lips be press'd
To her's-'twill not disturb her rest
Weep, mourner, shed the tear!
Strive not to hide it, twill be shed;
Thou know'st thy much-iov'd one is dead,
So she'd it on the bier
OF the fair and lovely form departed
Weep, stranger, for the hearted
Hirk its the solemn call,
'Tis The toll of death that bids us haste
The lov'd one on 10 her resting place;
Farewell to the world-and all
We come, we heed not the mothers wall,
That is borne along by ,he evening gale.
The grave awaits thee now,
And gently we lay thee down to resi-;
Press the turf lightly on her young breast,
And smooth il oer her brow;
Let the willow weep and the lilies wave;
Der the peaceful sleeper's lonely grave.
