CHURCH TRIUMPHANT. (L.M.) d = S4.

James William Elliott (1833-)

(1840-1893).

HESE things shall be! a loftier race shall rise
 * Than e'er the world hath known

With flame of freedom in their souls
 * And light of knowledge in their eyes.

They shall be gentle, brave, and strong To spill no drop of blood, but dare All that may plant man's lordship firm, On earth, and fire, and sea, and air.
