Yes—I will fancy that thou art near,

And whisperest often in my ear,

And believe that thou comest not alone,

But bringest with thee our angel son;

O, my darlings! is it not sweet,

Though in different worlds, in spirit to meet?

Do ye not know that I can say,

Strength has been equal to my day?

Have ye not heard that my tearful eye

Oft glances upward in ecstasy,
