And sweet the strains that angels pour.
O! Why should we in anguish weep?
They are not lost, but gone before.”

“I WOULD NOT LIVE AWAY, I ASK NOT TO STAY.
Where storm after storm rises dark over the way.
The few lurid mornings that dawn on us here.
Are enough for lifes woes, full enough for its cheer.
