THE CITY OF THE DEAD.

They do neither plight nor wed
In the city of the dead,
In the city where they sleep away the hours;
But they le while DER them range
Winter blight and summer change
And hundred happy whisperings of flowers.
No, they neither wed nor plight,
And the day Is like the night,
For their vision is OF other Kind than ours.
They do neither sng nor sigh
In that burg OF by aud by,
Where the streets have grasses growing, cool
and long;
But they rest within their bed,
Leaving all their thoughts uneaid.
Deeming silence far better than sob or song.
No, they neither sigh nor sing,
Though the robin be awning,
Though the leaves OF autumn march a million
strong.
There Is only rest and peace
In the City Of Suroease,
From the failings and the wailings meath the
sun,
And the wings of the swift years
Beat but gently DER the biers,
Making music to the sleepers every one
There is only peace and rest;
But 10 them II seemeth best,
For they lie at ease and know that life is
done.
