Religion and Doctrine.
BY JOHN HAY

He stood before the Sanhcdrim;
The scowling rabbis gazed at him.
lie rocked not of their praise or blame;
There was no fear, there was no shame,
For one upon whose dazzled eyes
The whole world pours its vast surprise.
The open heaven was far too near,
His first days light too sweet and clear,
TO let him waste his new-gained ken
On the hate e-clOuded face of men.
But still they questioned, Who are thou:
What hast thou been? What art thou now
Thou art not he who yesterday
Sat here and begged beside the way;
For he was blind.
Aud I an he,
For tr0s GIind. bat nor | see.
He told the story DER and DER;
1t was his full hearts only lore:
A prophet on the Sabbath-day
Had touched his sightless eyes with clay,
And made him see who had been blind.
Their words passed by him like the WIND
Which raves and howls, but cannot shock
The undred-fathonl-rooted rock.
Their threats and fury all went wide;
They could not touch his Hebrew pride.
Their sneers at Jesus and his band,
Nameless and homeless in the land,
Their boasts of Moses and his Lord,
All could not change him by one word.
Ihnow not ,ehot this man may be,
Sinner or saint; but as for me,
one thing Ikno1r, that an he,
Who once aras Mi}ld, and nor SPe.
They were all doctors of renown,
The great men of II famous town,
With deep brows. wrnkled, broad, and wi>'
Beneath their wide phylacteries;
The wisdom of the East was theirs,
And honor crowned their silver hairs.
