ON THE DEATH

SIR PETER PARKER, BART.

There is a tear for all that die,A mourner o'er the humblest grave;But nations swell the funeral cry,And Triumph weeps above the brave.
For them is Sorrow's purest sighO'er Ocean's heaving bosom sent:In vain their bones unburied lie,All earth becomes their monument!
