ABRAHAM LINCOLN, VAMPIRE HUNTER BY SETH GRAHAME-SMITH

 "Those midnight stars are sadly dimmed,That late so brilliantly shone,And the crimson tinge from cheek and lip,With the heart’s warm life has flown—The angel of Death was hovering nigh,And the lovely boy was called to die.The silken waves of his glossy hair Lie still over his marble brow,And the pallid lip and pearly cheek The presence of Death avow.Pure little bud in kindness given,In mercy taken to bloom in heaven.Happier far is the angel child With the harp and the crown of gold, Who warbles now at the Savior’s feet The glories to us untold.Eddy, meet blossom of heavenly love, Dwells in the spirit-world above.Angel Boy—fare thee well, farewell Sweet Eddy,We bid thee adieu!Affection’s wail cannot reach thee now Deep though it be, and true.Bright is the home to him now given. Of such is the Kingdom of Heaven." ABRAHAM LINCOLN, VAMPIRE HUNTER BY SETH GRAHAME-SMITH 2021-01-16 16:16

Listenest thou always, O monarch, to the words, fraught with instructions in religion and wealth, of old men acquainted with economic doctrines ? Are gifts of honey and clarified butter made to the Brahmanas intended for the increase of agricultural produce, of kine, of fruits and flowers, and for the sake of virtue ? Givest thou always, O king, regularly unto all the artisans and artists employed by thee the materials of their works and their wages ...
