Back from his beautiful blue-vein'd brow Brush all the wandering waves of gold, Cross his hands on his bosom now. Somebody's Darling is still and cold. Kiss him once for somebody's sake, Murmur a prayer soft and low ; One bright curl from its fair mates take, They were somebody's pride, you know j Somebody's hand had rested there ; Was it a mother's, soft and white ? And have the lips of a sister fair Been baptized in the waves of light ? God knows best ; he has somebody's love ; Somebody's hea...rt enshrined him there ; Somebody wafted his name above Night and morn on the wings of prayer. Somebody wept when he march'd away, Looking so handsome, brave, and grand ; Somebody's kiss on his forehead lay. Somebody clung to his parting hand. Somebody's waiting and watching for him — Yearning to hold him again to their heart ; And there he lies with his blue eyes dim, And the smiling, childlike lips apart. FREDERICK LANGBRIDGE 313 Tenderly bury the fair young dead, Pausing to drop on his grave a tear ; Carve on the wooden slab at his head — •' Somebody's Darling slumbers here.
