Lyrics: Epitaph of Azro W., Barnet Center, Vermont Cemetery
Tune: Seth Houston, 1993
Meter: 8s, 7s (8,7,8,7)

Peaceful be the silent slumber,
Peaceful in the grave so low.
Thou no more shall join our number;
Thou no more our songs shall know.
Yet again we hope to meet thee,
When the day of life is fled;
There in heav'n once more to greet thee,
Where no farewell tear is shed.
