each Of us our brother's keeper, crowded
together as we all are in the may laby- i
ninth of life, we cannot trace out him who
caused the deadly blow, by whose means

knoweth allthings, who looketh directly i
into the heart of each. To him the guilty
one stands revealed. Let every christian
look to this, and determine to free his own
skirts from blood ELLIoTT.
