Saw Deaths shadows falling round har,
Bleak, and still, and cold, and gay.
Then we laid her IN the toaorn
OF our Mother Earth, to rest,
When the Sun had climbed tbs zenith,
And was going down the Wast,-
Laid her-never more to meet her
TILL ne minEle with The bless.
Oh ! our darling ! bitter anguish.
Sharp md keen, our hearts had known;
But within them hopes still lngard
TIL We know thy soul hsd down,-
Ttat, amid the worlds vast expansa,
Ioreless, We must nye aloRe.
Soft the znow-1afes full above thee,
As tLe wintry winds sweep by;
And the young flowers ahed their fragrance
To tho South winds wooing sagh:~
And, from day to day. the shadows
And the euobearn1 ill the sky.
But thou sleepest meath all changer,
and We look for thee in EA1p, :
Pleading, In our otter anguish,
- But 10 ulakp thee onca zgnin,
But to feel tbs de7r lips' pressure
That should exercise this pain.
