We have only a little time to please the living. But all eternity to love the dead.
Goodbye to the sun that shines for me no longer.
To women silence gives their proper grace.
Whatever God has brought about Is to be borne with courage.
For the wretched one night is like a thousand; for someone faring well death is just one more night.
Sleep, thou patron of mankind, Great physician of the mind Who does nor pain nor sorrow know, Sweetest balm of every woe.
