Hermann, apjeared in the Wash
ington Times, Feb. 24th.
When I am summoned from this land,
And told that earthly life is spent,
wish my virtuous deeds t" stand
As one enduring monument.
Erect no scriptuied tomb of stone
To claim for mo a righteous life;
Far better I remain unknown,
Like those who fall in deadly triie.
For death itself I have no fear.
Tis for the acts 1 leave behind ;
That they grow brighter year by year
And perish with the close of time.
Aral, then, long after I am dead,
Oh, how much grander are my deed
Than marble slale so seldom read,
Forgotten and o'ergrown with weeds!
