  1. (continued from previous page)
    Life is short and death is sure
    The hour of death remains obscure
    A soul you have and only one,
    If that be lost all hope is gone
    Waste no time while time shall last;
    For after death 'tis ever past,
    All-seeing God your judge shall be,
    And heaven or hell your destiny,
    All earthly things shall speed away
    Eternity alone will stay.
