Shall never by man be lived again.
Let not thoughts of time depress,
A heart that owes but thankfulness.
Shine, sun, and let thy radiance bright
Disperse the gloomy shades of night.
Time hastens on an end too near,
And friends grow dearer every year.
Should with this day a sorrow come,
All hours, remember, gladden some.
My shadow keeps the time-worn track,
