Death, the last embrace a man will know,
Brings a family eternal woe.
Although he fights for his will to live,
Death is one not soon to forgive.
Sickness, famine, and wars alone
Are only a few causes known.
Unknown to the one in bed tonight,
Ahead of him rests the white light.
Man should not fear the light,
For through it lies his eternal rites.
Contrite consciences lead him away
For Lucifer will try to lead him astray.
Nay, this man's life is good and true
And will be proven when he bids you adieu.
Into the Heavens he is lead by Death
As he steals away the man's last breath.

- ...at least two of the lines were exactly the same as ones from a poem in the book Eldest. "Death, the last embrace a man will know" and "steals away the man's last breath" its like, the same thing.
