     We little dreamed of how much joy
        Our household was bereft,
     When loving arms and breaking hearts
        Our darling Aggy left.
     We list the patter of her feet,
        We pause her voice to hear;
     But ah! no more those tones shall come,
        So ringing, glad and clear.
     But why repine? one angel more
        Hath joined the joyous throng;
     Another harp on that bright shore
        Hath struck the seraphs' song!
