Come not to my grave with your mournings, U ith your lamentations and tears, With your sad forebodings and fears, When my lips are dumb, Do not come! Bring no One train of carriages, No hearse crowned with waving plume?, Which the gaunt glory of Death illumes, But with hands on my breast Let me est. If, in iny fair young time, attended By hope and delight every day, I could spurn the aw* et baseness of clay, Can you honor n)e, try Till yon die. Insult not my dust with your pity. Ye wlio're left on this desolate shore iStill to suffer and lose and deplore— ‘T is I should, as I do, Pity you.

Afraid of the darkness, Who groan at the anguish to come. How silent I go to my home! Cease your sorrowful bell; I am well. A Beautiful Incident Ayouth recently ran away from tbc galleys of Toulouse.
