| TAKEN from men this morning, | |
| Carried by men to-day, | |
| Met by the gods with banners | |
| Who marshalled her away. | |
| |
| One little maid from playmates, | 5 |
| One little mind from school, | |
| There must be guests in Eden; | |
| All the rooms are full. | |
| |
| Far as the east from even, | |
| Dim as the border star, | 10 |
| Courtiers quaint, in kingdoms, | |
| Our departed are. | |
