James Aldrich
1810-1856 / the United States of America
A Death-Bed
LIKE THIS POEM
Her suffering ended with the day,
Yet lived she at its close,
And breathed the long, long night away,
In statue-like repose.
But when the sun in all his state
Illumed the eastern skies,
She passed through Glory's morning gate
And walked in Paradise.
