On the 18th inst, at East View. MARY BELL infant
daughter of Robert B. and Mary L. Snapp, aged 6
months and Is days.
The child of my love in silence now lays,
Nor can awake her-she's dead
oh pride OF my youth hope of my days;
How soon thy bright prospects have fed!
Yet why should weep? my loved ones not lost,
But Jesus has called her away;
her spirit has gone to the realms of the blest,
Though her body must mingle with clay.
Then why should weep? for my lovedone' at rest
From cares and from sorrow SO free,
Safe plllowed above on EmanueTs breast,
Oh, what bright angel is she
But Oh. my dear Mary, loved thee so well,
My heart is now bleeding for thee,
Whilst thou hast gone with the Savior to dwell,
Thy absence is killing to me.
Yet would not from heaven recall thee.
Mid corruption and sorrow to dwell;
Then hail sacred hope, In heaven I'll rejoin thee,
This hope can my anguish dispel.
Then flow not ye tears, for my loved ones blest
With angels so joyous and gay;
Her spirit now battles in the ocean of rest,
Though her body must mingle with clay
