No downward path to death we go
Through no dark shades or valleys low,
But up and on o’er rises bright
Toward the dawn of endless light.
For not in lowlands can we see
The path that was and that to be,
But on the height, just where the soul
Takes deeper breath to reach the goal.
There we can see the winding way
That we have journeyed all our day,
Then turn and view with spirits still
Our future home beyond the hill.

I think Louisa saw no fear in death, That we can't control the path of life as we travell or its future and it's only in death that our soul can then look at "The path that was and that to be" A poem for its time and ours

A really emotional one. Not sad but determined, I love it!

I would say in my opinion that this write was about death and the passing from the living to the dead.
As often in reference that when passes o'er that they will go towards the light ,being that which leads to heaven I would guess.
