There is no Death.

There is no death! The stars go down
To rise upon some fairer shore;
. And bright in Heavens jeweled crown
They SHINE forever moro.
There is no death! The dust we tread
Shall change beneath the summer show
To golden ain or mellow fruit,
Or rainbow tinted flowers.
The granite rocks disorSanizc
To feed tho hungry moss they boar;
Inc forest leaves drink daily life
Fron out tho viewless air.
There is no death! The.leavas may fall.
The flowers may fade and pass away.
They only wait through wintry hours,
The coming of the May.
There is no death! An angel form
Walks DER the earth with silent tread
He bears our best loved things away,
And then we call them dead"
He leaves our hearts all dcsolate-
He plucks our fairest, sweetest flowers;
Transported into bliss, they now
Adorn immortal bowers
The bird-ike voice, whose joyous tones
Made glad This scene OF sin and strife,
Sings now in everlasting song
Amid the tree of life.
And where he sees smile too bright,
Or hearts too pure for taint and vice,
He bears it to that world of light
To dwell in Paradise.
Born into shat undying life,
They leave us but tNcomc again;
With JOY we welcome them-tGe same,
Except In sin and pain.
And ever near US, though unseen,
The dear immortal spirits tread;
For all the boundless universe
Is life--thero are no dead.
