Go, sweet Mary, gentle Mary,
Since the Angel claim their part,
Though your loss is felt most keenIy,
By many warm and loving heart,
Go, since God has called you homeward,
In your you hful, happy years,
Though miss you, | shall t1y
To shed for you no selfish tears.
Fot know that God was kind to take
you
From this weary world of pain,
AID hope ere many years to Join you,
In better world again.
Your whole life was calm and peaceful,
With scarce shade OF bitter grief
Like a nild and pleasant day in summer,
Bright, and beautiful, but brief.
You cannot feel my cold hands now, dear
Mary,
They cannot wake you from that
dreamless rest,
But Angels hands, trust have clasped
thine own in heaven,
And led you to seat amongst the blest,
And may we aU meet there again, my
Mary,
You and /, and all who loved you well,
When we are called from this dark world
of sadness,
And until then, my well-oved Mary
happy Mary-Fare- thee-well.
