"Nor dare to sorrow with increase of grief

When they who go before

Go furnished, or because their span was brief.

For doubt not but that in the worlds above

There must be other offices of love,

That other tasks and ministries there are,

Since it is promised that His servants there

Shall serve him still. Therefore be strong, be strong,

Ye that remain, nor fruitlessly revolve,

Darkling, the riddles which ye cannot solve,
