Roseburg review. [volume] (Roseburg, Or.) 1885-1920, 1886-11-19

As one who receives mortal wound
Again the womans throne is reared,
And Earth bows to the scepter of her son,
FOR as an hire the knowledge Of the Good,
Dwells one added to the House OF man.
And as the beams Of the coming day,
Pierce the gloom Of starless night,
Inc Light hrst paved the conquerors way,
And man behed his coming with delight,
But in the dim twilight Evil hides,
The revolving features Of his reign,
Till man no longer conscious of his needs,
From the neglected word is seen to turn.
Thus the children lose relish for the food
For which their fathers dared to die,
And Efeless find the embamed word,
AS the form, IN the grave of Machpelah.
The hungry soul must for conviction fly,
To where knowledge of his nature can be found
And robe in ii TO meet the Master'scye,
Where penitence and pardon heal the wound.
Still beyond the gate The unfading Eden shines,
Ana for each pilgrim there is welcome Home,
Where cruel mystery no longer reigns,
For where God is mans perfect day has come
Here mystery still rides her dreadful beast,
The confusion born Of Babels troubled tongue,
Nor have her cruel Vaccinations ceased
To mystify the line, twixt right and wrong.
And till this mighty Babylon shall fall
And the clouds from the word shall clear away,
The Son of Righteousness cannot be full,
Or the Living soul behold its perfect day.
Here remnant of the woman's house still sits,
Clad in hereditary unbelief,
Who still by their mysterious rites,
Casting the parent Of their nature off,
Thus from the generations of the past,
The Lord preserves monument to Israel,
Whose generations are written in the dust,
That Of the gods is allegorcal.
Again to Eve there is appointed seed,
When the Parent shall rule upon the earth,
Mine hour is not yet come" the Master said
Giving promise to his mothers faith.
"a sword to pierce the womans faithful SOUL
That the thoughts Of many hearts might be revealed
Were his reproachful words that on her nature ell
Though each bitter rind promise concealed
There sword with edge sufficiently keen
To separate the mother from her child
Save that which the marriage feast was drawn,
And from the mothers side her son exiled
lnongn woman mlnstered oil to his needs,
While he was lonely wanderer,
AS one without home on earth he treads
Nor seems to have permitted care from .er.
When he had nowhere to lay his head
Would not that mothers arm have pillowed it;
Had not the divider thus division bred,
That the good might with the evil nature wed?
Though daughter OF Abraham,
Woman is entitled to the care,
That a dumb brute may from its master claim,
But with the child the mother may not share
lie said ''Must not the children first be filed"
To the woman who accepted crumbs
thus she In her grave through faith conceived
And through bitter reproach her promise comes,
Man was first formed, deceived
AS was the woman by the serpents tale
But when mans full measure is received
There is promise for the house that fell
10 the husband woman's reverence is due,
And father twin natures added to the man,
Of the Heavenly Tree the lowliest bough,
The vine that drapes the Universal Throne.
His hand hath torn the Evil nature down,
Himself her shield in Danger front is cast,
Thus clad in honor bright the records shine
OF the protecting Angel of the past,
After the woman's fall her nature slept,
Until the offspring Of her faith was born
AS hrst fruits OF the harvest that she reapt,
The wisdom of the gods became her son,
For at last the ties of birth the Master owns.
He proclaims a universal brotherhood,
And by calling his mother, the Beloved Johns
He crowned a universal motherhood.
But here let him that is filthy and unjust remain
And he taa. is righteous and the holy too,
But spare him who neither returns again
To the native image OF which he grew,
For he who bade the Good and Evil be,
Still for their sake assumes e's humblest garb,
And in the helpless babe provides tree,
Where knowledge can weave her many coIored robe
Blest before all its fellows is the sense,
That to the creature gives heavenly world,
And walks with angels in the vast expanse,
Where the Makers glory is unfurled.
But sight is lifeless as the vacant stare
With which the brute regards the Heaven
Except the ear provides an open door,
BY which its light into the soul is given.
The senses Of touch and taste and smell
Are but the eye that upon matter feeds,
And convey knowledge to the creatures soul,
OF what in the gloom of darkness hides.
Thus life drinks knowledge OF its nature in
And new tree is in discerning Wisdom clad,
Till in number as the stars Of Heaven shine,
Becomes the offspring of the Parent God
And two trees stand in the garden Of Earth,
That on the same paternal stem was born
Where fhc same mother gave to each their birth,
And unites them in the same Head again,
