IN MEMORY.
The glorious sun shone in at morn,

The glorious sun shone In at morn,
The midnight hour has passed,
And around dear Margaret's bed they kneel
For death is coming fast.
Behold tile blue-veined brow serene,
Her lips they move in prayer;
A holy life is now to close,
The angels hover there.
And now when life is almost DER
And deaths sad hour draws near,
One favor more of heaven comes
priestly voice we hear.
To sooth the agony of death,
To whisper words of power,
To tell the joys which heaven hath
In this last lonely hour.
And kneeting round the dying girl,
Her parents bowed in woe;
her sisters and her brothers too are
[knee]ing there,
Their grief we'll never know.
And now the tears of anguish
Roll slowly down each cheek,
AS each name in tender accents
Her dying lips now speak.
Farewell father and mother,
Farewell sisters and brothers dear;
know you'll sadly miss me
With many lonely tear.
Fain would linger with you,
To cheer and love you still;
But Jesus voice has called me,
TITS sweet to do His will
Then dry your tears my loved ones
For we'll meet beyond the grave
In that land that knows no sorrow;
I'll be there to greet you all.
Her life was like lily
Just open to the sun;
Bloomed full of beauty for awhile
Then went; her task was done.
That form in marble whlteness lay,
chilled by an icy breath;
So beautiful to look upon
She was the bride of Death. -
