The tear-wet incense He will take

Who at the grave, for friendship's sake,

In holy sadness wept.

[ CALEB HAZEN TALCOTT, ]

Son of C. Talcott, Esq., died at Hartford, October 26th, 1860, aged 2 years and 6 months.

There came a merry voice

Forth from those lips of rose,

As tireless through its fringing flowers

The tuneful brooklet flows,

And with the nurslings feet
