    And so will you when you hear
    those verses
    From shedding tears you
    cannot refrain.
    As for myself I can never forget it
    While grass does grow or
    waters run
    It is for their parents I had
    most pity
    That had to part with them,
    and they so young.
    One was sixteen and the
    other eighteen
    They both being innocent and
    free from sin
    I hope the Lord, will them
    reward
    So good christians all now
    say Amen.
