β€œDeath has shaken out the sands of thy glass.”
John Gardiner Calkins Brainard
β€œFar beneath the tainted foam
That frets above our peaceful home,
We dream in joy and wake in love
Nor know the rage that yells above.”
β€œI saw two clouds at morning,
Tinged with the rising sun,
And in the dawn they floated on,
And mingled into one.
I thought that morning cloud was blest,
It moved so sweetly to the West.”
β€œAt the piping of all hands,
When the judgment-signal's spreadβ€”
When the islands and the lands
And the seas give up their dead,
And the South and North shall come;
When the sinner is dismayed,
And the just man is afraid,
Then Heaven be thy aid,
Poor Tom.”
