Peaceful be thy silent slumber,
Peaceful in the grave so low;
Thou no more will join our number
Thou no more our SONGS shall know.
Dearest sister, Malinda, ihou hast left u-'
Here thy loss We deeply feel;
But lis God that hath bcreft us;
lie can all our s0rrows heal.
Yet, again we hope to meet thee,
When the day of life is fed,
Then, in heaven, with Joy to greet thee,
Where no farewell tear i shed.
