��XXXIII. REQUIEM.

T^AKEN from men this morning,

Carried by men to-day, Met by the gods with banners Who marshalled her away.

One little maid from playmates, One little mind from school. There must be guests in Eden ; All the rooms are full.

Far as the east from even, Dim as the border star, Courtiers quaint, in kingdoms, Our departed are.
