When, after pains dispensed to prove

The measure of God’s chastening love,

Here, brought from far, his corse found rest,—

Fulfilment of his own request;—

Urged less for this yew’s shade, though he

Planted with such fond hope the tree,

Less for the love of stream and rock,

Dear as they were, than that his Flock,

When they no more their Pastor’s voice

Could hear to guide them in their choice
