The beauteous brow the form of grace | B |
With all their youthful charms | C |
The hand that woke the pencil's power | D |
And bore to penury's lowly bower | D |
The never wearied alms | E |
- | |
The sweet sweet voice that duly cheer'd | F |
A grateful Sabbath train | G |
The uprais'd eye that taught them more | H |
Of Heaven than all their student lore | H |
Must ne'er return again | I |

She took her flight as from the cage | J |
Enfranchised warblers glide | K |
Though friends were dear and life was fair | L |
She saw her Saviour standing there | L |
Beyond rough Jordan's tide | K |

Praise praise to Him whose faithful hand | M |
Prepared her glorious place | B |
For us is loss for her release | N |
The robe of rest the home of peace | N |
For us the pilgrim race | B |

Praise praise for her though love and grief | O |
Still mournful vigil kept | P |
The tear wet incense He will take | Q |
Who at the grave for friendship's sake | Q |
In holy sadness wept | P |
