Who Wrote This Please?

In my hands I have a copy of a poem written I believe in 1852 or there about

Behold yon setting sun
Fast sinking down the sky
His daily race is run
He lays his glory by
Obedient to his last decree
Who rules alike o’er land and see

I wonder if anyone knows who wrote it

Bill Williams

Hello Bill,

I found something very similar on the net called:

'On the Death of a General Soldier in the East Indies'

I hope it's ok to post the link here.......hope it helps.
