As still and cold she layAnd think what a lovely child she had been

And how won she must decay0 Death thou lovest the beatHul

In the woe of my spirit I triedFor the sees sparkled and the forehead wan fair

Of my tittle Irene that died

I miss her dear little voice by tild-eIsti hr toys and her empty chair at the

Where the hope of our souls shall havo no blightAnd our love no broken ties

We shall roam on the banks of the Rivet olpcaceAnd ono of the joys of our Heaven will be
