He looked at death as some delightful journey, Thought life had given him heaping cups of all Best gifts, and many a cup of pleasure. He has passed over the hill of time so level, The level of Time Beyond to receive the joys And in that house not made by hands. He placed his feet in square of justice And this is the principle on though life Our prayer is to receive this welcome guest And forgive any unforeseen thing done while in this past life, Acts against thy will; and may he receive the joys instore So goodby, we know that love lives beyond the Grave.
