haps as difficult Of Translation as any that ever

HATE THE PULPIT.
By CHARLES MAcKEI.


A thunderer In the pulpit !-let US hear
he cries with voice OF stentort loud AND clear,
That God desires no music IN HIS praise
But human voices upon Sabbath days;
That art in churches Is q telng eohorrd,
"A nd architecture Odlous to the Lord:
That none who prays with other forms than he,
Shall share the blessing OF eternity.
Down, bigot, down! too proud and blind to know
That God, who fashioned all things down below,
Made music and the arts, that organ tones
"A re his creation that the starry zones
And pomp of the cathedral, both alike
Were formed by Him. Mems hands can dslye and
strike,
And build or overthrow; but all their power
J. God alone. Poor creatures of an hoar
BE humble and confess how small art thout
Would st carry all Gods wisdom on thy brow.
a nd IN the limits of thy sect confne
The infinite mercy of his love divine,
Hate In the pulpit down, intruder down,
The place Is holy, and thine angry frown
shedS visible darkness on the listening throng,
Down, blgot, down! thy heart is In the wrong. ,
1hou art not pure within this place should dwell
Humility, and love lneffabe,
Seli-abnegatlon and the tranquil mind;
And heavenly charity, enduring, kind;
Patience and hope, and words OF genfeness;
Down 10 thy ciOSet-not 10 curse, but bless,
And learn the Iaw-the sum OF al the Ten
That love Of God includes the love OF men.
