Death & Dying
Funeral Hymns, Second Series, 33, Part 4
From Funeral Hymns, Second Series (1753) · Osborn ed., vol. 6 (1870)
Death & Dying
Though envy foul its poison shed,
To blast the venerable dead,
With base reproach to load,
She did not lose her pious pains;
Her judgment with her Lord remains,
Her work is with her God.
