They gave her back again:
They never asked to see her face; -
But gazed upon her vacant Mace,
Moaning, like those in pain.
There was a brief, hot thirst;
A th rating of the heart for streams;
Which never more save In sweet dream
From that lust fount should burst.
- There was a frightful cry, • •- -
As If the whole great earth Were dead; •
Yet was one arrow only sped,
One, only, called to die.
Then all grew calm as glee • •
And they lit household ways ; once more
Did BY: Inn anguish halt was o'er,
yor they had learned to vveep.
They stood ahout her bed,
And whispered !ow beneath their cloud;
Tor she might hear them speaking loud—
Bhe was so near; they said. •
Softly, her pillows pressing,
With rev. rend brows they mutely lay;
They searn ly missed the risen clay
In her pure soul's esreesing.
Last, from their eyes were driven
Those heart drops, lest to spoke their fears—
Her robes, alt heavy with !heir tears,
Might clog her flight to Heaven!
