HEAVEN.
ny NANCY A, W, PRIEST,

Beyond these chilling winds and gloomy skies,
Beyond deaths cloudy portal.
There is a land where beauty never die.
And love becomes immortal.
A land whose light il ever dimlned by shade
Whose fields ever vernal;
Where nothing beautiful can ever fade
But bloom. for aye, eternal
We NAV not know how sweet its balmy mir.
How bright and fair its flowers;
We may not hear the songs that echo thers.
Through these enchanted bowers.
The city's shining towers we may not SER
With our dim earthly vision;
For Death, the silent warder. keeps the key
That op-s these gates elysian.
But sometimes, when adown the western sky
The fiery sunset linsrrs,
Its golden gates swing inward noisriessly,
Unlocked by unseen fingers.
And while they stand a moment half sjar
Cleans from the inner glory
Stream brightly through the azure yanlt afaT.
And half reveal the story.
oh. land unknown, Oh, land of love divinei
Father. allwisr, eternal
Guide oh guide these wandering feet Of mine
Into these gates supernal.
