Manuscript: 
Transcription: 
Perhaps a squirrel may remain -
My sentiments to share -
Grant me, O Lord, a sunny mind -
Thy windy will to bear!
   _________________________
Safe in their Alabaster Chambers,
Untouched by Morning -
And untouched by Noon -
Sleep the Meek Members of the Resurrection -
Rafter of Satin,
And Roof of Stone.
Light laughs the breeze
In her Castle above them -
Babbles the Bee in a stolid Ear,
Pipe the Sweet Birds in ignorant cadence -
Ah , what sagacity perished here!
