Transition
So live that when thy summons comes
to join the innumerable caravan,
which moves to that mysterious realm
where each shall take his chamber
in the silent halls of death,
Thou go not like the quarry slave at night,
scourged to his dungeon,
but sustained and soothed by an unfaltering trust,
approach thy grave like one who
wraps the draperies of his couch about him,
and lies down to pleasant dreams.
