And when at last the shadow falls And the sleep no thunders wake, By the dead a vase of water clear For the parted soul we break.
Giving the life again to the Sun Through Ka-thlu-el'-lon's Lake; And, facing the east, the body lay In our mother Earth to rest, i6 Digitized by VjOOQIC Digitized by VjOOQIC Where dews may fall and dawns may gleam And purple and crimson radiance stream When day is low in the west ; And plumes of the birds of summer- land, Freighted with many a prayer, We bring to hel...p the spirit's way In the pathless depths of air.
But we do not fear that silent flight, Nor the slumber lone and chill ; For the Home of the Dead has song and love.
And they wander where they will ; And mom and eve, by hearth and wood.
We see their faces still.
Thus, day and night, and night and day.
Our rites the Gods enchain.
And bring us peace no others win 17 Digitized by VjOOQIC Digitized by VjOOQIC Far to west, Francisco's peaks Digitized by VjOOQIC Digitized by VjOOQIC Digitized by VjOOQIC Digitized by VjOOQIC Of all their earthly train ; For we are the Ancient People, Bom with the wind and rain.
