Alfred B. Street.

The voice of prayer at the sable bier!

A voice to sustain, to soothe, and to cheer.

It commends the spirit to God who gave;

It lifts the thoughts from the cold, dark grave;

It points to the glory where He shall reign

Who whispered, “Thy brother shall rise again!”

Henry Ware, Jun.

Yes! it is a certain sleep,

Where dreams of woe can ne’er intrude;
