Abdu Ben Adhem {may his tribe incrcasc)
Awoke one night from deep dream Of peace,
And saw within the moonlight in his room,
Making il rich and like lily in bloom.
An angel writing in a hook Of gold.
Exceeding peace had made Ben Adhem hold.
And to the presence in the room he said.
What writest thou;' The vision raised his head
And with look made Of all sweet accord.
Answered. The names Of those who love the Lord.
. And is mine one!' said Abou. NAY, not so!'
Replied the angel. Abou spoke more low,
hut cheerily still, and sad | pray thee, then,
Write me as one Who loves his fellow men,
The angel wrote and vanished The next night
il came again. with great wakenng light.
And show d the names whom love OF God had blest,
And 10! Ben Adhem's name led all the rest.
