FREDERICK T. GRAY: LOT 1843, HIBISCUS PATH. Is a lowly, neat monument of a Bible opened, encircled with a branchof Olive, resting on an inclined slab, supported by a marble base. How beautiful on all the hills The crimson light is shed!•Tis like llie peace the Christian gives To mourners rounil his beJ. How mildly on the wandering cloud The sunset beam is cast!Tis like the memory letl behind AVhen loved ones breathe llieir last. And now, above the dews of uighl,The yellow star appears; So fuitli springs in the heart of thoseAVliose eyes are bathed in tears. But soon the mornings happier light Its glory shall restore,And eyelids that are sealed in death Shall wake to close no more
