POETRY.
GLORIA IN EXCELSIS.'

Written on the mountain tops.
Glory to God on high the anthem raise,
Where human voice hath never stirred
the air,
Let the first sounds that break the still
ness there
Make each bleak summit vocal with His
praise,
Who by his strength has set the noun
tains fast
And girdcd them with majesty and power,
TO stand unmoyed while Time itself shall
last;
Towering sublime till that tremendous hour
When from His presence they shall melt
in fear
Like waX-O Thou that sittcst eycrmore
AT the right hand of God the Father hear
Our solemn prayer, that when these noun
tain boar
Shall quake to their foundations, we the
shock
May sheltered bide in Thee, our sure
salvaton's Rock! J.p.c.
