L'ENvoY.

Sermons of near an hour,
Too much for human power;
PRAYERS, too, made to match,
(EXtemporaneous batch),
Wofully blundered;
With service Of music
Fit to turn every pew sick
Should il be wondered1
Churches that will not move
Out of the ancient groove
Through which they have flounderd,
If they will lag behind,
Still must expect to find
Hearers of such kind
As the six hundred.

THE SNORING SIX HUNDRED.

"They would scarcely believe him when
I'D them that when in Thurso, some time az
c on one occasion saw six hundred people asle
church. Speech Of Dr. Guthrie.
0 er their devoted heads
While the law thunder'd,
Snugly and heedlessly
Snored the six hundred,
Great was the preachers theme;
Screwed on was ali the steam,
Neither with shout nor scream
Could he disturb the dream
OF the six hundred.
Terrors to the right Of them,
Terrors to the left of them,
TerrOrs In front of them
Hell itself plundered ..
OF its most awful things,
Weak minded preacher filings
At the dumblounded.
Boldly he speaks and well
All on deaf ears IL fell;
Vain was his loudest yell
Volley d and thunderd
For caring the-the truth to tell
Neither for heaven or hell
Snored the six hundred.
Still, with redoubled zeal,
Still, he spoke onward,
And in wild appeal,
Striking with fist and heel
Making the pulpit reel,
Shaken and sundered-
Called them the church's foes,
Threatened with endless woes
(Proof of their sweet repose)
From the United nose
OF the six hundred.
