The Masters footprints in thy way,
And walked thereon as holy ground,
A boon Of thee pray.

Ny feeble faith the strength OF thine;
need thy souls white saintliness
To hide the stains OF mine.
"The grace and favor else denied
May well be granted for thy sake"
So. tempted, doubling. sorely tried,
Ayounger pilgrim spake.
"Thy prayer. my son. transcends my gift;
No power is mine" the sage replied,
THE burden OF soul to lift
Or stain OF sin to hide.
"Howe'er the outward life may seem,
For psrdoning grace We all must pray;
No man his brother can redeem
Or sours ransom pay.
'Not always eye Is growth OF good:
Its years have losses with their gain;
Against some evil youth withstood
Its hands may strive In vain.
"With deeper voice than any speech
OF mortal lips from man to man.
What earth's unwisdom cannot teach
The Spirit only can.
make thou that holy Guide thine own.
And following where 1t leads the way,
The known shall lapse In the unknown
As twilight into day.

And Heavens eternal years shall prove
That life and death. and Joy and pain,
