of reproof was still tempered by love. As a cloud of the sunset, slow melting in heaven, As a star that is lost when the daylight is given, As a glad dream of slumber, which wakens in bliss, She hath passed to the world of the holy from this.

To the memory of Charles B. Storrs,
Late President of Western Reserve College, who died at his post of duty, overworn by his strenuous labors with tongue and pen in the cause of Human Freedom. thou hast fallen in thine armor, Thou martyr heart. In the evil days before us, And the trials yet to come.
In the shadow of the prison, Or the cruel martyrdom,— We will think of thee, O brother! And thy sainted name shall be In the blessing of the captive, And the anthem of the free.
1834.
