"Hail And Faeewell."

Our three-score years are but a span ; We scarcely trill an idle song Before the funeral army ' s van Passes ivith muffled drums along . And sadly then the doleful bell Moans in the palsied ear " Farewell ! ' " " Hail and farewell ! " The stars go doivu ;

The billoivs of the rosy dawn Are breaking on the idle town , And night's weird armies , far withdrawn , Fade like dim spectres doivn the west , And hope is strong ancl love is best .

Yes , hope is strong in newer souls , And love is best for those that stiy ; No more my ship at anchor rolls , And yours is sailing fast aivay . I lose you , for the ocean ' s swell Breaks noiv between us . " Hail , and farewell !"

The lamp goes out , the embers die , Pale Dian tips her silver keel In some far-hidden reach of sky , While night and darkness round us steal , And soiToiv sits on every sail ; We cry " Farewell ! '' but whisper " Hail !"

Beyond the ocean , where the palms Arise beside the jocund streams , And love rehearses all his psalms , Ancl youth reneivs his happy dreams , If I may ivait your coming sail , HOAV blessed then the cheerful " Hail !"
