IN MEMORY OF IDA.

All It's too true she's gone forever.
The ties thai bound her here are riven,
But. oh this darken'd world hath never,
Dismissed brighter saint to Heaven.
For she was all composed of worth,
A gentle spirit pure and high,
A plant too fair. too frail for earth,
And yet too sweet and good TO die,
Though but very child in face
Her mind had all woman's power,
It. nature formed with every grace
And genius stamped her natal hour.
Yet cold in dust that hand now lies,
Which never was lifted to offend,
But even in liles last agonies
Was fcebly stretched to childhood s
friend.
And those sweet lips that never did wound
With bitter words nor cause pain,
Are silent now, with their loved sound
Never to glad our hearts again.
Oh, then let us not weep her doom,
Rather thank God her spirits flown
To His blessed realm where fear nor gloom
Nor grief, nor pain, was ever known.
A FRIEND.
