MANHOOD, THE IMAGE BREAKER.

By James Russell Lowell. Old events have modern meanings; only that survives Of past history which finds kindred in all hearts and lives. Mahmood once, the idol breaker, spreader of the faith, Was at sumnat tempted sorely. as the legend saith. In the great pagoda's center, monstrous and abhorred, Granite on throne of granite, sat the Temples lord. Mahmood paused moment, silenced by the silent face That with eyes of stone unwavering, awed the ancient place. Then the Brahmins knelt before him. by his doubt made bold, Hedging for their idols ransom counts less gems and gold. Gold was yellow dirt to Mahmood, but of precious use, Since from it the roots of power such a potent juice. Were yon stone alone in question, this
  Mahmood said. "but. with the block there. I my truht must sell. Wealth and rule slip down with for tune as her wheel turns round He who keeps his faith, he only cannot be discrowned. Little were a change of station, loss of life or crown, But the wreck were past retrieving if the man fell down So his iron mace he lifted, smote with might and main. And the idol, on the pavement tumbling. burst in twain. Luck obeys the downright striker from the hollow core, Fifty times the Brahmins offer delugsd all the floor.
