Lines respectful'y presented to the distress d
parents on the death OF WILLIAM c., the only
child Of f e1ezeP and Mary f.. Piggott, who de.
parted this life August Sd, 49,, eyed month
and 10 Gays:
Once more the seraph chords are snung
In sweet and holy st ain,
TO welcome back 10 Paradise
sinless soul again.
Once more the golden gates roll back
Where, waiting bright and mild,
App ar white rob'd angel throng,
10 claim an earth born child.
But sad around mortal hearth
There breals soIrowng cry,
Where anxious hearts have knelt In dead.
To mark their Idol die.
They've lost their young, heir gentle one:
Oh dark the future lies;
As on that bier Of blighted hopes
They turn their stricken eyes.
The mother DER the pillow bend
Prest by that brow Of pearl,
But meet no more the rose Tipped kiss
VI her own baby boy.
Yet While the soryowing tear. drops fall,
Look, parents, far on high,
where thy cherub children, hand In hand,
Have met beyond the sky
There, bright mid heavens eternal bowers
Free from all tell and pain,
Bloom now thy lost unfading flowers,
Where ye shall meet again.
