-Leviticus, &c. 81.
I trod the hallowed ground that bore
A christian temple tall and proud,
When at each wide and loty door
Went streaming in a gorgeous crowd:
A welcome day bid all rejoice
A fair aud ancient festival,
And the glad organs mighty voice
Shook the strong roof and mighty wall.
Full MANY a token marked the fold
Where rich and high believers meet,
The sacred volume clasped in gold,
The costly robe, and drowsy seat

Arch, column, window, porch and gate
That ample fame, from vault to spire,
Looked solemn oil and calmly great.

And works Of goodness freely done,

Would greet-Jehovah's only son.

To kneel or sleep-the lordly fewi
Give me the shed, low, bare and plain,
Where love and humble truth abide,
Rather than earth's most noble fame
Defled by selfish pomp and pride:

Walled in by dark old forest trees,
Rooted over by the skies of God
