REST AT LAST.

After the shower, the tranquil sun; Silver stars when the day is done. After the snow, the emerald leaves; After the harvest, golden sheaves.
After the clouds, the violet sky; Quiet woods when the wind goes by. After the tempest, the lull of waves; After the battle, peaceful graves.
After the knell, the wedding bells; Joyful greetings from sad farewells. After the bud, the radiant rose; After our weeping, sweet repose.
After the burden, the blissful meed; After the furrow, the waking seed; After the flight, the downy nest; After the shadowy river—rest.
