Soft and safe to thee, my Brother, be thy resting-place! Bright and
glorious be thy rising from it!
Fragrant
be the acacia sprig that there shall flourish! May the earliest buds
of spring unfold their beauties o'er thy resting place, and there
may the sweetness of the summer's last rose linger longest!
Though
the winds of Autumn may destroy the loveliness of their existence,
yet the destruction is not final, and in the springtime, they shall
surely bloom again.
So,
in the bright morning of the resurrection, thy spirit shall spring
into newness of life and expand in immortal beauty, in realms beyond
the skies.
Until
then, dear Brother, until then, farewell!
