| 'My future will not copy fair my past' mdash | B |
| I wrote that once and thinking at my side | C |
| My ministering life angel justified | C |
| The word by his appealing look upcast | C |
| To the white throne of God I turned at last | C |
| And there instead saw thee not unallied | C |
| To angels in thy soul Then I long tried | C |
| By natural ills received the comfort fast | C |
| While budding at thy sight my pilgrim's staff | D |
| Gave out green leaves with morning dews impearled | C |
| I seek no copy now of life's first half | D |
| Leave here the pages with long musing curled | C |
| And write me new my future's epigraph | D |
| New angel mine unhoped for in the world | C |
