Where are ye with whom in life I started,
Dear companions of my golden days?
Ye are dead, estranged from me, or parted.
Flown, like morning clouds, a thousand ways.
Where art thou, in youth my friend and brother.
Yea, in soul my friend and brother still.?
Heaven received thee, and on earth none other
Can the void in my lorn bosom fill.
Where is she, whose looks were love and gladness.
Love and gladness I no longer see!
She is gone; and since that hour of sadness.
Nature seems her sepulchre to me.
Where am I? — life's current, faintly flowing.
Brings the welcome warning of release;
Struck with death, ah! whither am I going?
All is well, — my spirit parts in peace.
