When Napoleon talked of going into Italy,
they said: you can't get there. If you

Then Napoleon rose in his stirrups, and,
waving his hand toward the mountains, he

wonderment Of all the years since-the Won
derment of all enginee 5. And you tell me
there are such mountains of sin between
your soul and God there Is no mercy. Then

mountains. | near Him say, ~ will come
overthe mountains of thy sin and the hills
OF thine iniquity." There shall be no Pyrs-
nees; here shall be no Alps.
Again, L notice that this resolution of the
