from fhe century Mdpns'HS
Forth from his tent the patriarch Abraham slept,
And iengthening shadows slowly past him crept.
For many davs he scarce had broke his fast,
Lest some poor waudcrer should come al last
And, scanty comfort finding. 90 his way
III doubt OF uods great mercy day by day.
But deep conteptment in his calm eyes shons
When lie belci aiar u pilgrim lone,
Fare slowly toward him from the flaming west,
With weary steps bciohcning need of rest.
When that he came anear, straghtway was seen
An aged man ot grave ari reverend nicn.
Guest OF mine eyes he re- bet thy footsteps halt
The patriarch said and share my bread and salt v
Then calling to his knfolk soon the board
Was laien richly with the patriarch's hoard.
Aud when around the fair rrpast they drew,
BismiilahV said thoy all with reverence due;
Save only he for whom the feast was spread;
lie bowed him graNcly, but no word he said.
Then Abraham thus; 90 guest In it not meet
Tp utter God great name ere thou dost eat ~
Tho pilgrim answered courteous but calm,
" Good friend. of those who worshp fire am"
Then Abraham rose. his brow with anger bent
And drove the aged ,ihebcr from his tent.
That instant. swifter than a flashing sword,
Appeared ami spoke an angel of the Lord.
In shining spicndor wrapt the bright one said:
" An hundred y ears upon this aged head
Gods mercy hath hcen Ia, isfed from on high,
In life and sun and rain. bort thou deny
What cod witholis not from the IN a,,cst cIod ~
The patriarch bowed in meeknessi Great is Godi
