Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDE FGHGIJIJHe died as he had lived beloved | A |
Without an enemy on earth | B |
In word and deed he breathed and moved | C |
The soul of honor and of worth | B |
His hand was open as the day | D |
His bearing high his nature brave | E |
And when from life he passed away | D |
Our hearts went with him to the grave | E |

What desolation filled our home | F |
When death from us our treasure bore | G |
Oh for the better world to come | H |
Where we shall meet to part no more | G |
The hope of THAT sustains us now | I |
In THAT we trust on bended knee | J |
While thus around his faded brow | I |
We twine the wreath of memory | J |
