My name is in his book.

Alas! How changed that lovely flower,
Which bloomed and cheered our heart --
Fair, fleeting comfort of an hour,
How soon we were called to part.
Dearest Edward thou hast left us --
Here thy loss we deeply feel;
But 'tis God who hath bereft us,
He can all our sorrows heal.
It as God who gave our Edward to us--
The appointed time he stood.
It is the Lord we plainly see,
He doeth what seemeth good.

Called hence by early doom;

In paradise would bloom.

And lay them in my breast;
Protection they shall find in me,
In me be ever blest.

Bloom in the garden of thy God.
