The stars go down To rise upon some fairer shore; And bright, in heaven ' s jeweled crown, They shine for evermore. He leaves our hearts all desolate, He plucks our fairest, sweetest flowers; Transplanted into bliss, they now Adorn immortal bowers. And ever near us, though unseen. The dear immortal spirits tread; For all the boundless universe Is life-there is no dead! John Luckey McCreary 92 93 94 • Winston-Salem HUNTER PUBLISHING COMPANY • North Carolina 96 ■ ' ■. ; ' i.
