scr comfort to his FAMILY and friends
after his death;
Though he that ever kind and true
Sour whole long gusty lifetime through
Re gone awhile before
he now moment gone before
Yet. doubt not. soon the seasons spaii
Your friend to you
He has but turned a corner-stili
He pushes on with right good WI
Thro mire and marsh, by heush ana
hill
That self-same arduous way
That self-samc upland hopeful way,
That YOU ana he through many
doubtful day
Attempted stiil.
We is not dead, this frlcnd-not dead
But in the path we mortals tread.
Got some few, trinins steps ahead
And nearer 10 the end:
So that YOU, too, once past. the bend
shall meet agaia as face 10 face, this
friend
You fancy dead.
Push sayly on, strong heart! The while
You travel forward mile by mile.
He letters with a backpa ard smile
TIL YOU can oVcrtake.
And strains his eyes. TO search his wake
