  A precious one from us
  has gone. A voice we
  loved is stilled. A place
  is vacant in our home
  which never can be filled.

  Lone are the paths and
  sad the bowers
  Whenee thy meek smile     [inscriprion is spelled "Whenee"]
  is gone
  But O! a brighter home
  than ours
  In Heaven is now thine own
  Her toils are past her work is
  done
  And they are fully blest
  She's fought the fight the victory
  won
  And entered into rest.

  Dearest Minnie thou hast left us,
  here our loss we deeply feel,
  But 'tis God that has bereft us,
  He will all our sorrows heal.

  As a bird to its sheltering nest
  When the storm on the hills is
  a broad
  So her spirit hath flown
  from this world of unrest
  to repose on the bosom of
  God.
