THE GENIUS OF DEATH.

What is death? IT'S to be free
No more to love, or hope or fear;
To join the great equality;
All, all alike are humbIed there
The mighty grave
Wraps lord and slave;
Nor pride nor poverty dare come
Within that refuge-house-the tomb:
Spirit with the dropping wing,
And the ever-weeping eye,
Thou of all earth's kings art King!
Empires at thy footstool lie!
Beneath thee strew'd,
Their multitude
Sink like waves upon the shore;
Storms shall never rouse them more
What's the grandeur of the earth
To the grandeur round thy throne!
Riches, glory, beauty, birth,
To thy kingdom all have gone,
Before thee stand
The wondrous band,
Bards, heroes, sages, side by side,
Who darken'd nations when they died!
Earth has hosts, but thou canst show
Many million for her one;
Though thy gates the mortal few
Vas for countless years rolPd on :
Back from the tomb
No step has come:
There fix'd till the last thunder'I sound
Shall bid thy pris'Eers be unbound!
