Four mounds of earth lie side by side
Where summer sunshine far and wide
It's largess throws. No dismal shade
From cypress or from yew is made;
The sweet-brier trails across the swan
Where happy-hearted daisies guard
From rude appI zach the precious sod
That lies upon that hill of God.
An hundred threats their carols pour
From out full, exhaustless store,
As IL their rapture bore along
Refrain from one undying song.
The light, the song. the roses breatn,
Preclude the gloom and chill OF dedth'
As-calm aud stili-the holy dust
Awaits the rescued spirits trust;
And toyous life upsprngeth fair
Where they Lave climbed the Heavenly stair
Can love from out our lives be lost,
Whose fibers with our own have crossed!
Are Won bright angels brows more fair,
Meath glory of the haloed hair,
Than when they bent TO me below
All 0listening with the Pascha.-show?
Do they-iIf happy life above
Forget their ministry of love?
Though ears on years of silence fall
Since they have answered TO nv call,
Their coming footsteps still hear
land stretch my arms to draw them nearl
Their garments rustic on the stair,
Their tender accents thrill the air;
SO close they seem, so calm, so bright,
The lonely way is touched with light!
Like afterglow in Eastern lands,
That Aushes all the desert sands.l
