Hearts later linked ia friendships chain,
Ter comfort brought, and truth made plain,
Give thanks TO God for you
They 10 whose grief ron said, THE Lord

Aud they whose tears with yous we're poured,
OF evels IN ilis treasures stored,
Would speak In hope to-day.

Ahome the spol!sr enters rot
Where love shall never change.
