noun. and ar. not 10 be comiorted, out It
should BE- a consolation, (sweet to dwell upon,)
that h.r soul Is al peace i'll the bosom OF her
Father and her God.
Those lips are pale that once gave birth,
To words of sweetest, tenderest love;
None brighter glow'd upon the earth,
None brighter CLEAN in Heaven above.
The form is cold-no more we'll press
Our lips upon that placid brow!
What living streams of tenderness
With Ter warm life have ceased TO flow!
She's now en,hroned in realms on high,
Where angels hvmn one choral strain,
Amid the throng she glideth BY,
The l~oyeliest OF the cheIub tram.
One VINO loved her long and we'll pays the
tribute Of his tears-more he cannot pay; bat
affection. virtue and love will crowd her tomb
with their riches, remembrances; and II Is just
they should, Tor eminently she deserves them
all-,he hear, tells us so, which Is at once the
emane,lou OF tears Of gratitude for favors past,
and the fountain OF tears of love. ~.
