LOVE AND DEATH.

When The end comes, and We must LAY guod-by,
And am going 10 that quiet landi
And sitting In some loved place, hand In hand,
For the last time together, YOU and I,
We watch the winds blow, and the sunlight lie
Above the spaces Of our garien home.
Soft by the washing Of the western foam,
Where we have lived and loved in days past by
We must not weep. my darling, or upbraid
The quiet death who comes to part US twain
But know that parting would not IL such Pain
Had not our love perfect flower been made.
And We shall md 1t In Gods garden laid
on That sweet day wherein we meet again.
