All ye whoso hearts, henceforth, must buried lie In the, most sacred earth of sonje dear grave, Now that this year of deaths hath hurried by, What joy, what hope, what comfort can we have? ( , "What joy?" Nay, that the dead in Christ arise, And that our heavy sorrow is not theirs, — That God doth wipe all tears from their poor eyes , And' to Hosannas turn their /patientprayers ! " What comfort?" That .the. Timd 1 hencefoiih is s short! ' x ' , j. , " What hope?" While we are waiting,, to fulfil , Their, and our, .Eather's willinpuch a sori That we may, be jscarce parted, but, until , Our death is laid with their's'beneath the sod, ■ , Our life.be hid with theif's, with' Chris't'in God ! S.H. PAiinusif.
