In Memoriam .
H . E . H . THE PRINCESS ALICE MAUD MARY , GRAND DUCHESS OF HESSE DARMSTADT . Obit Dec . lith , 1878 , Mat 35 Tears . On , let the universe of'love - now weep , And mourn a Princess dear to every one ;
Her name , and fame , in mem ' ry ' s mine we'll keep , With reverential care 'till life be done ! To praise the good is poor respect to pay , Where . goodness dwells it blesseth and is blest ; A passing tribute let us ive to-day
g , And shed a tear o ' er ALICE , UOAV at rest . The loss is sad , and must he keenly felt , The clasping hand , the Avell-loA'ed A'oiee to miss , "Thy Will be done ; " the blow is kindly dealt , 'Tis earthly joy exchanged for heav ' nly bliss !
So fair a life , from childhood ' s budding days Expanding to the genial light of love , A rare effulgence sheds , and by its rays , We trace the golden path of peace aboA'e . When loA'ed ones die , the parting rends our hearts ,
A solemn silent spell is cast around ; The grief Ave feel a holiness imparts , Our tears are dried with rei ^ rence most profound . And now a nation ' s grief , sincere and true , From land to land extends Avith light ' ning speed : Let loyal hearts their fealty ever shew , And ask for aid Divine in every need . SATAETCIIS .
THE IDEAL . "BE good , sweet maid , and let AA'hbAvill be cleA'er ; Do lovely things , not dream them all day long ; And make life , death , and that vast for ever One grand , siveet song . "
. CHAELES KIS - OSLEI ' THE EEALITY . " Sb GOOD , SO KISD , SO CLEVEE . " * " So good , so kind , so clever "—' tis the right order ; . Base , shaft , and capital—a perfect column ; 'lis what we deepest prize Avhen near the border Of death so solemn .
