POEMS.
111
There with dear Lulu, your bright little cherub,
Your spirits will mingle in Heaven's own
United forever, your light ever shining,
And nothing obscuring your vision all bright.
Your spirits will mingle in Heaven's own
United forever, your light ever shining,
And nothing obscuring your vision all bright.
Be happy, kind mother, though Lulu's de- parted;
Never let your sweet eves overflow with sad tears;
Take up the cross meekly: the crown will be brighter,
When called from this earth and eternity appears.
Never let your sweet eves overflow with sad tears;
Take up the cross meekly: the crown will be brighter,
When called from this earth and eternity appears.
A WISH.
I wish for thee, mother,
With the kindest affection,
Long years of true happiness,
And beautiful love,
From all the beloved ones
That around you do mingle,
Trusting devoted affection,
And love from above.
