DENEATH the still November sky, With nature's peace and beauty blest, We put our selfish sorrow by.
And laid our comrade down to rest.
Rest — in the morning of his days !
Rest — when his heart had just begun To feel the warmth of all men's praise.
The radiance of the rising sun !
Rest — to a strong and stately mind.
That rose all common flights above !
Rest — to a heart as true and kind As ever glowed with human love !
114 -^'2 Memory of George Arnold.
And round him, dimly, through our grief, I...n every natural sound we heard — In whispering grass, and rustling leaf, And sighing wind — the same sweet word ; Rest ! And we did not break the spell.
By holy nature woven round The fading form we left to dwell Forever in her hallowed ground.
No hymns were sung, no prayers were said.
Save what our loving hearts could say.
When, mutely gazing on the dead, We blessed him ere we turned away : Back to the round of daily care That seems so vacant to us now.
Remembering what repose was there, What peace, upon his marble brow.
