her wings. Thar she is right up III
the sky her wings stretched, like
the sladaef OF. a mighty rock in Il
dry land. Thar below is the little
eagles standing on the last stick,
the I.st prep, holtiin "n with their
trs,nbliu feet like grim death, while
fiery billows roll beneath-afeard to
hy. stearl to stay, afeard TO DO affyss
thing, ateard not to do sdmthiGg1
knowing thar is a deep purelplee,
whar the worm dieth not and the fire
is not quenched-knowing thar is a
place whar the streets run with milk
and honey, -and swhar thar s. hoswsep-
in, no mourning, 10 nashing of THAR
testh-knowing they hunt got moth
ing here, nor won't have nothing thar
unless they stir themselves and fly
upward. Why don't they Fly up

and cry out, and want to fly, but
they dussent-waiting fur convent.
ent season which never comes, and
thar above all is the old eagle
spreading above of her wings and
docking down to see if they won't do
sumthing-lixe men and wimen, ia
stead Of jist staying thar like marble
statutes to be waited about by every
E.breeze-and thar she rs a.spreading
Fabout her winge, untik If last she
gives one greatgaqpswk Of wrath, and

And that brings us>to another pint
Of our discourse, which rs He taketh
'em. And thar's different ways of
taking things. ThAr,ss people with
| mighty takia ways, and thar S officers
that takes you to jail and thar's
boys that takes -apples and peaches,
which things they oughtent-and
thar's people that takes you in
which isn't meant for the good uus
which take strangers in and keer ON
FfefnLlike unto the Gommorians when
Lots wife was took into the house
like pillar Of salt and idivid into
four quarters and sent into the land
Of. Israel, for which the anger burnt
agin ,semAfor the hurt of the daugh-
ter of Israel were sore.
But he taketh them-f don't mean
the eagles-and leads them to near
pastures and beside still waters. whar
there's no more signing and suffering,
no more weeping and parting-fur
"Parents and children thar shall meet
Parents and children thar shall meet -
Parents and children thar shall meet!
Shall meet to part no more. >.
