Also our Dear Father

WILLIAM PAGET

Died 21^st June 1935

Aged 77 years

My Engine Now Is Cold And Still

No Water Does My Boiler Fill

My Core Affords Its Flame No More

My Days of Usefulness are O’er

My Wheels Deny Their Wary Of Speed

No More My Guiding Hand They Need

My Whistle Too Has Lost Its Tone

It’s Shrill And Shrilling Sounds Are Gone

My Valves Are Now Thrown Open Wide

My Flanges All Refuse To Guide

My Clocks Also Though Once So Strong

Refuse Their Aid In The Busy Throng.

No More I Feel Each Urging Breath

My Steam Is All Condensed In Death.

Life’s Railways O’er Each Station Easy

In Death I’m Stopped And Rest At Last.

Farewell Dear Friends And Cease to Weep

In Christ I’m Safe In Him I Sleep.
