Show I POETS' CORNER. For the Union Original. Thou art gone sweet babe: In a dreamlfiss sleep. Are thine eyelids closed forever; And the silvery tones ! 0 thy cherub voice, 0.n earth shall echo never. In death's cold embrace, Thy beauteous form, ' ; To mouldering dust is given; ,1 . ' But in radiant loveliness, Pure as the snow, . Thy spirit hath entered heaven. And far from all eurthly Hj Pains and ills, In a land that knows not sorrow; WM With loved ones who Have gone beforo, j Thou'lt wait the coming morrow. Await the morn, The glorious mom, H When forth from earth's dark portals Awakened to life fl By Jesus' power 1 Mortal becometh immortal. July 1878. |
