From slvering mid-sea to the Syrian sand,
1t was the time of blossom in the land
On field and hill and down the steep ravine,
Ran foam and fire of bloom and ripple of green
The Sepulcher was open wide, and thrown
Among the crushed, hurt lilies lay the Stone
A light wind stirred the Garden: everywhere
The smell of myrrh was out upon the air.
For three days He had Travelled with the dead,
And now was risen to go with stilIer tread
The old earth ways again,
To stay the heart and build the hope of men.
He made luSter in that leafy place,
His form serene, majestical; His face
Touched with a cryptic beauty like the sea
When night begins to be.
The cold gray east was warming into rose
Beyond the steep ravine where Kedron goes.
Now suddenly on the morning faint with flame
Jerusalem with all her clamorS came
A Snarl of noises from the far-off street,
Dispute and barter and the clack of feet.
A moment it brawled upward and was gone
Faded forgotten in the deep still dawn.
He passed across the morning. felt the cool,
Keen kindling air blown upward from the pool
busy wind brought little tender smells
From barley fields and weeds by April wells.

Up in the tree-tops where the breezeS ran,
The old sweet noises in the nests began
And once He paused to listen while bird
Shouted the joy till all the Garden heard.
There in the morning, on the old worn Ways-
New-riSen from the sacrament of death
He looked toward Olivet with tender gaze:
Old things of the heart came back from other DAVIS
The happy hOmey shop in Nazareth
The monday shadow of a wayside tree
That had betrended Him in Galilee;
Sweet talks in Bethany by the chimney stone,
And night-long lingering talks with John alone
And then He thought of all the weary men
He would have gathered a mother hen
Gathers her brood under her wings at night
And then He saw the ages in one flight,
And heard as a great sea
All of the griefs that had been and must be
AS He stood looking on the endless sky,
Over the Garden went sobblng cry
He turned, and saw where the tall almonds are
His Mary of Magdaa, wildly pale,
Fast-fleeting down the trail,
And suddenly His face was like a star!
He spoke she knew-a blaze of happy tears;
