And though it often made us weep To see nis vacant chair Where afternoons he used to sleep The sunlight on his hair, Though home seemed quite different place Without the gentle cheer Reflected in his kindly face, For many happy year, That duty had been firmly met Twas comforting to know, |And so we stifled our regret And said.
