Immortality

THEY sin who tell us love can die;
With life all other passions fly
All other are but vanity
In heaven ambition cannot dwell,
Nor svarice in the vaults of hell;
Earthly these passions of the earth,
They perish where they had their birth
But love is Understandable,
Its holy flame forever burneth,
From heaven it casne, to heaven returnth
Too oft on earth troubled quest,
At times deceived, at times oppressed,
1t here is tried and purified
Then hath in heaven its perfect rest
1t soweth here with toll and care,
But the harvest time of love is there.
