The path of night with stars is strewn, That, pit3'iDg, from above Looked down upon that vigil lone, That deep, undying love ; On woman's strong, enduring faith. And hope that wrestled e'en with death. Each mournful breeze that hurried by. Devotion's earnest strain, Her lips poured forth to God on high. Bore upward from the plain ; Bright angels hovered o'er the spot, And gave her strength to leave it not. Pale grew the sufferer's cheek, and dim His glazed and sunken eye, And cold and stiff eac...h tortured limb, That told the end was nigh. His faithful Gertrude's hand he grasped, And love's last words convulsive gasped. " This is thy love," he murmured, " this Fidelity till death ; " Then, with a smile of saintly bliss, Resigned his struggling breath. The work was done ; the spirit trod Its shining pathway home to God. FRIENDSHIP. 137 And now beside the fearful wheel, "Whence hope and life had fled ; She stood, her loneliness to feel, The living with the dead ; Then, kneeling there, devoutly blest The grave that had inspired her breast.
