"She is not dead, the child of our affection,
But gone into that school
Where she no longer needs our poor protection,
But Christ himself doth rule.
"In that great cloister's stillness and seclusion,
By guardian angels led.
Safe from temptation, safe from sin's pollution,
She lives, whom we call dead."
---Elliott.
