" She lay, a lovely bride of death, and a sad, a fearful witness of that intense love which forms the ever re deeming beauty of wr.mnn. And who could stand over that youthful victim, and not fuel a mysterious sympathy as they gazed upon herform soearly; so sorrowfully cut down! And Who that reads this shall hereafter say to a dear child: n. Your love mutt an to this one-of It thrill not to that?
