On earth tho delug, OF sin covers the Ton,

Brooklyn is drowned in it, Bos on is
drowned in it, London is drowned in it
ST. Petersbur is drowned in 1.-TWO great
hcmispheres are drowned in it. But the re.
deemed, looking into the ''raiu bow round
at out the throne,' see the pledge that all
this is ended Tor them forever. They have
committed their last sin AID committed
their last temptation. No suicide leaps
into those bright waters; no profanity be.
louis that pure air; no villains torch shall
lire those temples; no murderer's hand
shall strike down those sons Of God. They
know that for them the deluge OF SIN is
assuaged, for 'there is Rainbow round
about the thronc~n
Now the " Grid is covered with delugo

pire. The spirit Of despotism and freedom
at war in every land; despotic America
against free America, despotic ENGLAND
against free England, despotic Germany
against free Germany, despotic Austria
against free Austria. The great battle Of
earth is being 1ought-the Armageddon Of
the nations. The song that unrol!ed from
the sky on the first Christmas night Of
peace and cool will to men," is drowned
in tie booming Of the great siege guns
Stand back and let the long line OF ambu.
lances pass. Groan to groan. Uncover
and look upon the trenches of the dead.
Blood blood IA deluge of blood!
But the redeemed Of heaven, looking
upon the glorious arch that spans the
throne, shall see that the deluge is over.
No batteries are planted on tho.e hills; no
barricides blocking those streets; no hos
tile flag above those walls: no smoke Of
burning villages; no shrieks of butchered
men; but peace! German and French
man, who fell with arms inter-
locked in hate on the field of death,
now, thr ough Christ in heaven, stand with
arms interlocked in love. Arms
stacked forever; shields OF battle
hung up The dove instead of the eagle;
the lamb instead OF the lion There shall
be nothing to hurt or destroy in all Gods
holy mount, for there is a rainbow round
about the throne.
Now the earth is covered with deluge OF
sorrow. TROUBLED troubled Tho very hrst
utterance when we come into the world IS
u cry. Without any teaching we learn 70
weep. What has so wrinkled that mans
face! What has so prematurely whitened ms
HART What calls out that si.hl What starts
that tear! TROUBLED trouble! find 1t in
the cellar Of poverty, and far up among inc
heights on the top OF the crags; for this aiso
hath gone over the tops Of tbs highest
mountains. No csc pc from 1t. You 60
into the store. and it meets you at your
counting desk; you go into the street. and
it meets you at the corner; you go into the
house, and it meets you at the door. Tears
OF poverty tears Of persecution! !, tears OF
bereavement IA deluge Of tears Gather.
ed together from all the earth, they could
float an ark larger tn IN Noah's.
But the glorified, looking up to the bow
that spans tbs throne, shall 500 that the
