moved by the union which embodies,
Of the antique in history and the cur
rent in life and thought, as, beginning
with the weird mendicant faintin@ upon
the hillside of Santa Rabida, it traces
the strange adventures OF the GenOeSe
seer from the royal camp OF Santa tc
TO the sunny coasts of the Isle OF indie;
through the weary watches OF the end
less night, whose sentinel stars seemed
set to mock but not to guide; through
the trackless and shoreless wastes of
the mystic sea, spread day by day to
bear upon every rise and fall OF its
heayinG bosom the death OF talr, fond
hopes, the birth of fantastic fears; the
peerless and thrilling revelation, and all

as through the soiumn archWays OF some
grand cathedral the long procession pass
us silent and rs real as Il dream; the
caravels, tossing upon Atlantic pillows,
have their sails retiiled from the east
. and bear away to the west; the land Is
reached. and fulfilled is the vision whose
actualities are to be gathered by other
hands than his who planned the voy-
age and Steered the bark Of discovery
the long-sought, golden day has come
to Spain at last. and CaStilian conqueStS

to pile UP perpetual power and riches.
But even as simple justice was denied
Columbus was lasting tenure denied the
