Lord, what is life? t'is like a flower That blossoms and is gone;

Rest, youthful sufferer, sweetly rest, Low in your quiet bed; Tho' once with pain & fears distressed, Now pain & fears are fled. Life & its pleasing dreams are gone, Vanished the vision bright, Like summer gentle cloud it shone, Then melted from your sight. In vain affections tender care, To ward the fatal blow, Death had his charge & could not spare,
And laid our fond hopes low.
