In Memory Of MATTE VORYs, who
died August I2th, aged . years.

Though her little life seemed amless,
Earhs great highways all untrodi
Yet her spirit, pure and stainless,
Went up to the throne of God.
Went to Jesus, blessed reflections,
Now crown, a harp is given,
That amid our deep detection,
We have treasures safe in Heaven.
Saved from sin and saved from sorrow
That might come in after years,
For who can tell but on the morrow,
Brightest smiles will turn to tears.
Therefore, parents smile, though weeping,
Think that Jesus, God the son,
Has your treasure safe in keeping
Till your day of life is done
Now our land is drnpcd in mourning,
Every home has vacant chairs
Where the eyes unused to weeping,
Where the loss with this compares
Loss by bullet, ball and shell,
Oh the sorrow who can tell
OF the many thousand others
Stricken, desolated mothers,
All around us.
August Goth, 1864.
