He spread the Heavens as a scroll
He made the sea He formed the world
The Heavens again shall backward roll,
And mountains from their base be hurled.
He formed the lovely verdant green,
And anght of fair that e'er hath been;
But all with Time shall pass away,
And in one shapeless ruin lay
But God In his glory, the God of the sky,
Will continue through endless eternity;
Forever, untainied, all holy, and pure
His love, and his mercy shall ever endure.

Mr.. Brady then raised an objection. which he said
