1t brought the author much cordial
praise. Two stanzas are here repro.
auced as an example of the grander,
mightier sentiment which finds express
sion in Mr.. Dunroy's we'll chosen words:
Behind Us like noisome fog
the past uprears
With hideous pictures wrought
in blacklist gloom,
OF famine, gaunt and grim,
Of hate and all the spawn
OF hell, that bides in
wars prolific womb;
Ofwrong triumphant
in its pride and insolence
Qpeace and truth expunged,
Of hope denied
OF love despised,
despoiled and erueified.
The eenturys gates swing outward
with sonorous Gang,
Disclosing, all unsullied
and untrod
A cleaning threshold,
like the steps that slope beyond
The yelling mists to touch
the throne of God;
And from the heights invisible
there comes chant
OF angel singing,
Turing men to holier things,
As higher up the steps
the glad world swings.
