To The memory OF Edgar Washington Derau9h"
,cho died -, 1859.
Death, lingering, strikes-at his approach
The trembling spirits faint and die:
Pale sickness sinks upon his couch,
And hesves the painful, parting sigh.
In vain for u. ments Of delay,
Shall beauty plead with magic power;
Relentless be selects his prey,
And grssps the brightest, sweetest dowsr.
The youthful heart, with pleasure Wild.
Elste with mirth, with fancy gay,
Soon by his icy touch is chilled,
And lfes bright visions aset away.
Thus did our Edgar's moments dy,
On wings of JOY, with prospects iair,
While cloudless was his present sky,
And hope, fond hope, his guiding star.
From envy's grasp, with malice armed,
His srtlesS smile. his weapon stole;
With transport strange the monster warmed.
And wak'd to love his gloomy soul.
But why. fond memory. why recall,
Those charms which late such pleasure gave:
Since now. our Edgar's-best of ali
Lies cold. the tenant Of the grave.
Pale are those checks Of roseate dye,
Their dimpling smiles forever flown;
Dim is the brightness of that eye,
Which once with lustre shone.
Mute is that voice. whose accents sweet,
The ear of fond attention drew
Still is that heart which constant beat,
To every gentle virtue true
Alas. shall death forever reign,
Triumphant. near each scene Of Bliss
Blast young desire--turn joy to pain,
And riot Oh such spoil ~ this'
Frail mortal, cease--no longer moan.
This vain regret, these murmurs still:
The varying change from nature learn,
And bow TO the Almighty's will.
The flower, that's fair. its blossoms spreads,
And joys to hail the solar ray,
At morning fades-yet only fades,
To bloom afresh st opening day.
To woodlands barren to tho sight,
New foliage vernal gales shall bring:
The insect lives the winuy night,
And autters on the breath of spring.
Then, when deaths long, long night i. DER,
In realms of bliss shall beauty rise,
Arrayed with charms that fade NO more,
In clmes where virtue never dies.
