    You will not forget,
    To sigh with regret,
For summer companions away;
    And let our hearts meet,
    In communion sweet,
At the close of the wintry day.

    Farewell, ye dear friends!
    As life's twilight descends,
May the dawn of that morning increase,
    Which shall burst on the sight,
    In the regions of light,
And open the mansions of peace.
