He lived, Lived where his father lived, died where he died, Lived happy, and died happy, and was saved. Be not surprised. He loved and served his God.
86 THE COURSE OP TIME.
There was another, large of understanding, Of memory infinite, of judgment deep, Who knew all learning, and all science knew ; And all phenomena, in heaven and earth, Traced to their causes ; traced the labyrinths Of thought, association, passion, will ; And all the subtle, nice affinities Of matter traced, its virtues, mot...ions, laws ; And most familiarly and deeply talked Of mental, moral, natural, divine. Leaving the earth at will, he soared to heaven, And read the glorious visions of the skies ; And to the music of the rolling spheres Intelligently listened ; and gazed far back Into the awful depths of Deity ; Did all that mind assisted most could do ; And yet in misery lived, in misery died, Because he wanted holiness of heart.
A deeper lesson this to mortals taught, And nearer cut the branches of their pride : That not in mental, but in moral worth, God excellence placed ; and only to the good, To virtue, granted happiness, alone.
