to back up such threat, aud defy their

Culd death was softly, slowly creeping.
In death we see You like vision OF light,
While your spirit On the wings Of the angels
flOve,
For the reHlns Of heaven plnIoned Its ilighN
There In Uhrlsts bosom TO nestle pure
dove.
Little Katie Is u fragile flower,
Tfausplantcd to realms of bliss;
There TO bloom Ia heavens bower,
An receive sweet angels kiss.
Katie Is q brilliant gem,
In lovely beauty and purity set,
To grace Gods throne II diadelu,
Wslet you g0-our pet,
Nestled In our Fathers arms above,
Or play Ing around his throne,
Where all Is peace and Joy and love,
That Ia where our Katie has flown.
