52 MOUNT AUBURN. Beautiful are the winding path-ways made Around the hills, and in the cool, green glade ; Fair are their vistas opening to the view, Their sylvan names are soft and pleasant, too ; Peaceful and calm the sleeper may rest well In the cool shades of Consecration Dell. On the green hill-side, waving o'er the tombs, The feathery brake nods its long tufied plumes ; The solemn wind-swept pines, like ocean's surge, Breathe from their hearts a melancholy dirge ; Silent and still the wat...er sleeps serene, Its surface covered with the polished green Of a most delicate plant, that o'er it weaves A glossy mantle of the finest leaves. Upon this sloping hill-side there sleeps one, For blameless purity of life long known, For duties well fulfilled, a life well spent, And a true heart, kind and benevolent ; Strangers may need a stone to mark the spot, By those who knew thee, Bradlee, unforgot ! Up to the summit of that highest hill Oft do my weary footsteps wander still : MOUNT AUBURN.
