English text
Go gentle soul, supremely blessed,
from scenes of struggling virtue go,
from thy immortal feat of rest behold
our world of ling’ring woe.
From virtue’s source if sorrows rise,
while tears, my hopeless fate declare
O justify these endless sighs,
and now prefer one gracious pray’r.
If in thy bless’d repose above,
Fond fancy still the past surveys,
blame not sweet saint my ardent love,
wont in these longing eyes to blaze.
Bow to that awful hand divine,
Which made thy span of life so brief,
His mercy sue to shorten mine,
and grant a suffering soul relief.
