She Sleeps IN Death.
IN MEMORY OF IDA.

Yes she sleepsi but the dark eyes win never
Unclose from her long dreamless rest.
She is dead. and the pale hands forever.
Are clasped on the cold pulseless breast.
The smile on her mute lips that fingers
Is the last that they ever win wear.
As the angels received the pure spirit.
In sweet kisses its impress left there.
Dear father and mother" she murmured.
Your love has been tender ami true,
o, well have you guarded and cherished
The frail life God trusted to you.
But now you must yield up your treasure,
God but lent me. He claims me again.
Yours only the sorrow, remember
That to me death is all Christ and gain
"'Tis but three short, bright years my dea
husband.
Since entered your home and your heart,
When promised 70 love and obey you,
And TO honor till death did us part
How kindly your dear hand has shielded
My brief welded life. free from care.
l thank you aud bless you my dearest,
l with wait for you yonder-up there"
ayes. see you, my baby, I'm coming
Reach Your tiny hand over TO me,
And guide me across the dark river.
To the shore, where so plainly see
The forms Of my de nd loved ones waiting
To welcome me home to the sky.
And III wait for you. too, dearly loved ones,
Ifyoun come TO me there-bye and bye"
The wavering hand pointed upward,
One moment the lips rIoyed IL plSyer,
A shadow passed over the pale brow,
And we knew that Deaths angel was there.
Now we've laid her down under the now-driit,
Not purer, not whittier than she.
And all that is left of our darling
Is solemn yet sweet memory.
