lirik lagu little nell's funeral - richard mitchley - charles dickens
and now the bell, — the bell
she had so often heard by night and day
and listened to with solemn pleasure
e’en as a living voice, —
rung its remorseless toll for her
so young, so beautiful, so good
decrepit age, and vigorous life
and blooming youth, and helpless infancy
poured forth, — on crutches, in the pride of strength
and health, in the full blush
of promise, the mere dawn of life, —
to gather round her tomb. old men were there
whose eyes were dim
and senses failing, —
grandames, who might have died ten years ago
and still been old, — the deaf, the blind, the lame
the palsied
the living dead in many shapes and forms
to see the closing of this early grave
what was the death it would shut in
to that which still could crawl and keep above it!
along the crowded path they bore her now;
pure as the new fallen snow
that covered it; whose day on earth
had been as fleeting
under that porch, where she had sat when heaven
in mercy brought her to that peaceful spot
she passed again, and the old church
received her in its quiet shade
they carried her to one old nook
where she had many and many a time sat musing
and laid their burden softly on the pavement
the light streamed on it through
the colored window, — a window where the boughs
of trees were ever rustling
in the summer, and where the birds
sang sweetly all day long
