speak the English language in the dia-
lcct peculiar to the black man in the
South are noted for simplicity in nam-

frequently the ugliest and most repuIsive

Whose pillars are the pearl-white birches

The chancels are aglesm with the balsam' 5

The aises are quiet reaches
With domes of golden beeches;
From Natures leafy organ loft
Mystic harm0nies swell marYelOusly soft
OffertOries tremulOus and sweet, floating

Where the choiisters Of the forest stay

Bends above its messy sod
Everywhere the breath of God.
