On THE DEATH OF MISS ELLA LINCOLN OF
MT. TABOR, VT.

MT. TABOR, VT.
She hath gone in her youth and beauty,
To the land where the angels sing,
To join in the song triumphant,
Where death hath no power to sting.
With the purest of blooms they crowned her,
Then bore her away to her rest,
To sleep with the flowers that loved her,
With a calm untroubled breast.
She hath gone in her youth and beauty,
To fairer home above,
O! who would not die to live like her,
In the Eden of JOY and love?
She hath gone like the fair young flowers
That gladden. the spring time here,
Too frail for the frosts of autumn,
She hath gone to brighter sphere.
She hath gone in her youth and beauty,
From the light and warmth of home,
From the arms that were won't to shield her,
To rest in the lonely tomb.
O'er the home she hath left dark shadows
Are gathering around the hearth,
flushed are the sounds of joyous laughter
In the hall where once was mirth.
And her careless, happy song.
And yearn for her kiss of tender love
o, where hath their birding gone?
Her angel wings she hath plurned for flight
Far up in the ether blue
She winged her way-O! the blissful sight
That doth greet her wandering view.
She hath gone in her youth and beauty,
With the flowers she hath gone to rest,
In her coffin bed with wreathed brow,
And pale flowers on her breast.
She sleeps tonight near her cherished home,
Where the pale moon sheds her light,
And the stars look down from the far off thron
With calm and plying light,
On the mournfal hearts whose tears bedew
The mound where their Ella rests.
With the flowers that she loved she sweetly sleeps
With calm, untroubled breast,
To wake no more in a world of sin,
Where chilling death-frosts blight
She hath gone in her youth and beauty,
Where love is the center light.

That seemed to be the key note, and was

This appeal to their sense of glory was
perfectly successful, and from that time

days after, Paris retained but few traces
