nnose tender heart so often bled,
When others acts were rude
Her gentle, tender, artess words
oit tou' he'd the wounded heart,
Like music IN the distance heard,
NosId sVlncc sweet impa.t.
The brightest aowers and softes, hues
That III the ga, dens grow
The gentle hand OF beauty woes
To twine around her brow.
SO God has sent his Angel, death,
To cut Eugeuia down
10 twlne her IN tn 4 livin wreath
That forms our Saviour's crown.
Inc chrSttan's faith alone su .tains
me heart oppressed with grief;
"hich, when amid its b;tterest pains.
Can hnd Saints relief.
But STILL the failing heart must quail,
Beneath deaths cruel power;
And natures b,ok-n ties bew.il
Each sad and lonely hcm.
Twas sad to see the family group
Around her DYING bed
When hope deferred, her wings must flroon
And cry Eugenas dead
Then anguish, pain, and sorrow deep.
:. were seen on features there
aer looks ""rc those Of quiet sleep,
So angel like aud fair
An anguished mother nightly weeps.
For kind Eusenia's dead
hugenia now that sweetlv sleeps.
The earth her quiet bed.
And sisters mourn Eugenia fair,
IN iaud of evcrmorc,
while father and lov'd brothers share
Ihelr grief Of inmust core.
ana though she's dead her goodness vii,
sweet remembrance b,inr:
''I' Ni'uheSs blooms in memory still,
Like flowers OF tQlmy Spring.
But Yesterday. it seems, she stood
= Attentive to my speech
io,day she's bIrst among the good
Where sorrow cannot reach.
A pref acquaintance bound my hesrt.
Nlth sweet affections chain
But death has armed his fatal dart
And brightcst hopes were vain.
My dca' est friends like autum leaves
Are fading from my view;
Eacn bitter blast my heart bcreaves,
VI some sweetjoy it knew.
Sweet thoughts for fair Fugenia's name.
As time shall pass away
And menl'ry still will ever claim,
With freshness Of to day.
AS long as life with reason blends,
Her lame sweet memories claim
"hlle oer her grave affection bends,
To breathe Eugenia's name.
Oh will her youthful schoolmstes hcor
Her tender parting wo ds,
And meet her ~ that biiSslul sphere.
Where dwell our blessed Lord
