LINES IN MEMORY OF MRS. N. n
NEW.

The pearly gates now open wide,
Aud shining onces stand near,
While gushes near the crystal tide
The longing soul to cheer.
From earth she pass'd with garment!
pure
Washed in the SaYior's blood;
She whom naught of earth could lure
Frem duty's sacred road.
Affections many, dire and long
Had been her lot below;
Butnow she sings the glorious song
With cadence soft and low.
Her voice was soft, her manners mild,
Her heart with kindness fill'd;
And simple, humble as a child
Which 10 cold blasts eer child.
In Heaven on high, my sister, dear,
Wen meet to part no more;
Where grief, nor woe, nor cen sigh
Can reach that shining shore.
