Which earth display’d to claim thee from the skies.
Look down! and if thy spirit yet retain
Memory of aught that once was fondly dear,
Soothe, though unseen, the hearts that mourn in vain,
And in their hours of loneliness—be near!
Blest was thy lot e’en here—and one faint sigh,
Oh! tell those hearts, hath made that blest eternity![63]
