THE CRY Of THE WORKERS,

The babbers in the temple made with hands
Sat talking talking, talking, all the day,
OF rcctitude and Justice, and the way
The world should walk, obeying their commands
And while the glass recorded golden sands,
And shadows Enlightened in the busy street
There came sound Of swift determined feet,
And blows upon the portals brazen bands,
And then voice, relentless and elatc:
I'VE care not for your arguments and creedS
We care not for Your pity or your hate,
We clamor not for theories, but deeds
Then give us OF the heart and not the head,
