Seldom except in books do the dying utter memorable words; see visions; or depart with beatified countenances; and those who have sped many parting souls know that to most the end comes as naturally and simply as sleep。 As Beth had hoped; the ‘tide went out easily'; and in the dark hour before dawn; on the bosom where she had drawn her first breath; she quietly drew her last; with no farewell but one loving look; one little sigh。
With tears and prayers and tender hands; Mother and sisters made her ready for the long sleep that pain would never mar again; seeing with grateful eyes the beautiful serenity that soon replaced the pathetic patience that had wrung their hearts so long; and feeling with reverent joy that to their darling death was a benignant angel; not a phantom full of dread。
When morning came; for the first time in many months the fire was out; Jo's place was empty; and the room was very still。 But a bird sang blithely on a budding bough; close by; the snowdrops blossomed freshly at the window; and the spring sunshine streamed in like a benediction over the placid face upon the pillow; a face so full of painless peace that those who loved it best smiled through their tears; and thanked God that Beth was well at last。
