Tbe soul can never lift
Thee to n height where round thy feet
No clouds of pain will drift
AT every Toast, ubbidden guest,
Some fear will still intrude
No day calm but in its breast
The morrow q storm may brood.
And shall care leave with passing years
Its impress on this bro#l
And sorrows dim with growing tears
Those eyes tranquil now

Above the fields Of space
Kind Heaven will cancel the account
OF Hfe'S fOreshadowed days.

This day with mournful eyes,
Or with reprOaOhful words pursue
Our way to paradise
But let your mother lift her brow
To Faiths sorensst light
To one as innocent rs thou,
