His final hour brings glory to his God!

When death's bereaving hand wakes friendship's tear, 
And sorrow's swelling heart comes weeping here, 
Dear to remembrance is the sweet belief, 
Thy soul is ramsom'd from a world of grief.

Belov'd in life, in death to memory dear, 
Tis bleeding friendship wakes the sleeping tear; 
And as devotion pays the tribute sigh, 
A hovering spirit wafts it to the sky!
