CORINNE AT THE CAPE OF MISENA.
255
Such were the words of one who felt those words
With all the truth of sorrow. In this world,
Grief and life go together; 'neath the tent,
The palace, and the cottage, woe is heard,
Speaking with suffering's universal voice.
But of the many who at night are glad
To lay their common burden down and rest,
Surely the mind endowed with gifts from heaven
Must be most glad, for it foresees its home,
And saith, in its rejoicing orison,
Thank God, thank God, there is a grave; and hope
That looks beyond to heaven!
