Her father, mother, strove to help, but succour there was none, For with that blow that struck so hard her sweet young life was gone. They bore her in her bride's attire, with tears, to Crooked Lane ; The mother wrung her hands in grief that her dear child was slain. Thus, Dorothy's bright day of life to speedy end did come : While she was going on to church the angels took her home.... NAT BENTLEY. 51 Now while the parents wept in grief that they should see no more Their darling child, a messenger the doleful tidings bore Unto the bridegroom and his friends, how that the bride was dead, Crushed by a cruel falling stone that struck her gentle head. The messenger arrived in haste, and, panting told his ta!o. Each listener trembling, stood aghast, and every che. 1^ was pale. And he who that fair morning thought to lead his bride away. Bewildered, like a man, all dazed, had ne'er a word to say.
