OVER THE RIVER.

I shall know the loved who have gone before,
And joyfully sweet will the meeting be,
When over the river, the peaceful river,
The angel of death shall carry me.

[We doubt not, with the dear ones who welcomed her to the heavenly shore, she waits for the loved ones yet left behind. Marvin.]
