DEATH
Side by side they lie in the dust, and worms cover them both!Ever gliding down the stream of time into the ocean of eternity!
He preached his own funeral sermon!
What a superlatively grand and consoling idea!
A grey head, and a carnal worldly heart
Susannah Spurgeon, "A Song of Sighs"
He who trifles with it is a fool!
There lies his mortal body, moldering into dust—and feeding the worms!
Soon I must go down that road from which I will never return!
Nine evils which death will put an end to
The great Arbiter of life and death!
Flying through the air with an angel-escort!
The nest was destroyed, and the poor bird lay bleeding and exposed!
His uplifted dart is inexorable!
Many times Jesus and His people pull against one another in prayer
Could you be so selfish — and so cruel?
View well the monster in true light!
That last river which we all must pass over!
It must be consigned to the dust from whence it came!
Zeuxis died laughing at the picture of an old woman
The vilest reptile and the proudest prince
The messenger of Christ to fetch us home to Himself!
I am in eternity—and you are on the brink!
He never thought that he would sink into Hell!
When we gaze upon the lifeless corpse
There is no discharge in that war!
The happiest moment of his life!
In the midst of all the wild scene—Stephen fell asleep!
When the cold winds are whistling over your grave
Both are buried in the same dust — both eaten by the same maggots!
And there reader, you are going!
The thread of life is held by the divine hand alone!
The house appointed for all living
Though we mourn—we must not murmur
Prayer for a time of bereavement
In a few days — I may be in Hell!
That ruthless invader of all happiness
Where am I bound for? For heaven—or for hell?
An undressing from his sins and infirmities
Surely, we would not wish them back again!
The funeral of all your sorrows!
Crawling along the road of life
Death is a change of employment
It will matter little when I lie in my coffin!
You are the one who has done this!
Love photographs them in the heart!
A few feet of earth will suffice
Like a passing scene in a drama!
A worm, a gnat, a fly, a hair, a
seed of a raison, a skin of a grapeThe great robber of our loves and joys
We sicken, and die, and moulder away in the grave
Death brings the soul to a state of eternal rest!
They only think of amusements and entertainments
Death puts an end to all changes
The mad desire of plenty and pleasure
This tyrant wields a universal sway!
We shall wither, fade, and die!
A hideous skeleton, a collection of bones, a heap of dust!
Beyond this, I have no great desire to live
The base cares & the petty enjoyments of the present world
You are the one who has done this!
The time has come for my departure!
The death of your godly daughter
My little daughter Ann was in good health on Monday — and on Thursday she was a corpse!
Reader, turn aside and see this great sight!
He then sank back, like his son, smiled, and expired!
The gate of death, and the gate of glory, are one!
All our care, forethought, and caution
When you come to creep into your hole
Honor, wealth, and pleasure lose their charms
The design of the divine Artist
How many more years will I live?
This dark valley of corruption, earth, and worms!
SEVEN LESSONS LEARNED TOO LATE
You are on the road to eternity!
Riches! Beauty! Pleasure! Genius! Fame!
Your beauty, strength, and fine attire
The grass will be growing over our graves!
The death of our dear friend Elmore
The things the pagans are always concerned about
Neither youth, nor wit, nor beauty, nor strength, nor money
