"Farewell, thou lovely innocent, farewell!
By thy cherubic guards attended, rise
High, in thy heavenly father's house to dwell,
In blissful mansions of the eternal skies.
Well hast thou 'scaped the many ills that swarm,
In baneful troops, o'er earth's infected shore;
Safe art thou lodged beyond the reach of harm,
Where pain and grief can never touch thee more."
