Notwithstanding the violence of the death of the President, there was something beautiful as well as grandly solemn in the expression of the placid face.

I gazed long at the face, and turned away with tears in my eyes and a choking sensation in my throat. Ah! never was man so widely mourned before. The whole world bowed their heads in grief when Abraham Lincoln died.” MenWorldWellsLongWholeEyeBeautifulFacesPresidentWhiteGriefViolenceChildhoodTearsHe ManExpressionDiedIntellectWhole WorldSensationsThroatIdolsSweetnessGentlenessSolemnChokeGrandeurAbrahamSomething BeautifulGodlikePlacidTears In My Eyes Author:Elizabeth Keckley
