TEXT:
There is an old belief
That on some solemn shore
Beyond the sphere of grief dear friends shall meet
once more,
Beyond the sphere of Time
And Sin, and Fate's control,
Serene in changeless prime of body and
of soul.
That creed I fain would keep,
That hope I'll ne'er forgo.
Eternal be the sleep, if not to waken so.
