Farewell, my distress and my wo The storms of existence are o'er; Tho' fiercely the tempest may blow, Its fury appals me no more. 2 More quickly and shorter I breathe The dew is o'erspreading my cheekI feel the approaches of death, My heartstrings beginning to break; From earth and its anguish I fly; I live by submitting to die.
