    On the confines of earth 'twas permitted to rest,
    And the depths of the ocean its presence confessed.

Eye hath not seen it, my gentle boy!
Ear hath not heard its deep songs of joy;

Time doth not breathe on its fadeless bloom,
For beyond the clouds, and beyond the tomb,
It is there, it is there, my child!

That our close kisses should impair their white,--
I know we shall behold them raised, complete,
The dust swept from their beauty, glorified,
New Memnons singing in the great God-light.
