point these mourncrs TO those inspired
lines OF our great poet Longiellow:
There Is no DEATH what seems 30 Is transition.
This lie OF mortal breath
l. but the suburb to ihe Life Elysian,
Whose portal We call death.
.She Is not dead that child Of your affection,
But gone unto that school
Where She no longer needs your poor protection
And Christ himself doth rule.
In that great cloister's stiffness and seclusion
By Guardian Angels Led
Safe from temptation, safe from sln's poui'oui
She Lives whom we call Dead"
