MISCELLANY.
The Farmers VIII.


Like tech vines closn when the sun goes down,
Or fodder Crspin at the harvest noon,
My plant of life droops low its leaves are browni
The seasons spent, the end is none too soon.
I've ploughed the field both ways an kept It clean
Until the crops laid by;N the prospects fair,
And as | view the stretch of gold an green
/ sniff the cool and cree pin evenin arr
l don't fear death: the future life I'll greet
As only springtime come agin to stay,
without the winters cold or summers heat,
But jest an everlastin' GROWN day
The farm an its belongins, stock an store,
leave to wife. the near horse of the team
An after she jines me, to them she bore,
The precious blooms atloat on our lie stream,
An now, some few requests wish obeyed,
Relatin' to my fun'ra obsequies,
The which want to be without parade
OF black plumed hearse or boXed-up carriages
The wagon bed on springs to break the jar,
win do to bear me to the churchyard' rest.
The country way has served me well so fari
So mote II be; the simplest is the best.
A coffin cheap as can be bought or made
Is good enough to lay mortal in.
For one must turn to dust the other fade,
An all that's earthly go to earth az IN.
Lay out my body in my common clos,
No boughten shroud of shiny coat an vest,
suit that every friend an neighbor knows,
So that won't look strange or seem undressed.
For all it's homespun an home made an plain,
My God has walked with me in it down mere;
An | should feel most foolish, weak and VAIN
To put ON airs to walk with HIM up there.
I'd like to have my neighbors dig my grave
AS have helped to do, without expense;
1t amt the cost mind, all that I'd waive,
But don't want hired hands to bear me hence.
At last a sweet madeira or a rose,
A simple prayer, perhaps song. and then
A long farewell to all terrestrial woes:
The preachers benediction an amen.
