E who died at Azan sends
Hope to comfort all his friends:
Faithful friends! It lies, I know,
Pale and Avhite and cold as snow,
And ye say, "Abdullah's dead!"
Weeping at the feet and head.
I can see your falling.'lears,
I can hear your sighs and prayers;
Yet I smile and Avhisper this?
"I am. not the thing you klse;
Cease your.tears, and lent lie;
It was mine, it is not I."
Sweet friends! Avhat the women lave
For tho last sleep of the grave,
Is a hut which I am quitting, .
Is a garment no more fitting,
Is a cage from Avhich, at last,
Like a bird my soul h_th passed, ?
Loye tho inmate, not the room?
? The wearor, not the garb.?the plume
Of the eagle, not the bars
That kept him from those eplendid stars.
Loving friends! Be Avise and dry
StraightAvay every weoping eye
What ye lift upon tho bier
la not Avorth a single tear,
? 'Tis an ompty sea-shell?one
Out of which tho pearl is gone;
The shell is broken, it lies there;
Tho pearl, the all, the soul, is here. '
'Tis an earthen jar, whoso lid
Allah sealed, tho while it hid
That treasuro of his treasury,
A mind that loved him; let It lie!
Let the shard be earth's "once more,
Since tho gold is in his store!
Allah glorious! Allah good!
Now thy world is understood;
Noav the long, long wonder ends;
Yet ye Aveep, my foolish friends,
While the man Avhom ye call dead,
In unspoken bliss, Instead,
Lives? and loves you; lost, 'tis true,
For tho light that shines for you;
But iu the light ye cannot see
Of undisturbed felicity?
In a perfect paradise,
And a life that neA'er dies.
Farewell, friends! But not farewell;
Whero I am, ye, too, shall (hvoll.
I am gone before your face,
A momont's Avorth, a little space.
When ye come whore I. havo stepped
Ye Avili wonder AVhy ye Avept; _
Ye will know, by true love taught,
That here is all, and thero Is naught.
Weep aAvhlle, If yo are fain?
Sunshlno still muet follow rain;
Only not. at tlonth?for death, v
Now avo know, is that flret breath
Which our souls draw Avhon avo enter
Life, which Is of all life centre.
Be yo certain all seems love,
Viewed from Allah's throne above;
Bo ye stout of heart, and come
j-.av.ly onward to your homo!
La-il Allah! Allah la!
O love divine! O love ahvay!
Ho who dlod at Azan gave
This to those Avho mode his grave.
