" Grieve not for each weeping friend. All their sorrow soon shall end ; We will pour a holy balm — We will all their sorrow calm. Sister spirits gather round. Let the song of joy resound; All is over — quit thy clay. Brother ! brother ! come away. " XXII. He sleeps in peace ! his groans are heard no more ; For him, 'tis now enjoyment — ^he has pass'd Life's dreary bourne, and landed on the shore. Where all for weal or woe must land at last. His fate is bliss — men are born sinners all. But when... he shall the trump of judgment hear. His sins of answerment will be but small. Peace to thy ashes ! my companion dear. XXIIL Consumption ! do thy worst — I am the last. That's left for thee in this abode of death ; In one short month, which scarcely yet is past. Three youthful victims hast thou reft of breath. Without one hand, among their kindred dear. To soothe them in their dying agony ; Nor friendship's voice, nor parent's fondness near To whisper comfort or behold them die. THE DREAMER.
