THE BOOK OF LIFE. "Book of Life! to thee I fly When the world weighs heavily, Heavily upon my heart, And earthly thoughts no peace impart. Earthly hopes, all hollowness Earthly joys, deceitfulness Earthly praise, a tinsel gain Earthly pleasure, after pain Earthly stay, an ebbing wave Earthly end, the dark, cold grave. Wearily, wearily, From worldly wastes, so drearily From trouble, toil, and vanity, To thee I turn-to thee I fly, Caroline Bowles.
