Abou Ben Adhem (may bis tribe increase)
Awoke one night from deep dream OF peace,
And saw within the moonlight in his room,
Making it rich like lily in bloom
An angel writing in book of gold:
Exceeding peace had made Ben Adhem bold,
And to the presence in the room he said,
"What wrtest thou?' The vision raised its head,
And. with look made all of sweet accord,
Answered, "The names of those who love the Lord.
"And is mine one?' said Abou. "Nay not So"
Replied the angel. Abou spoke more low,
But oheerily still; and said, II pray thee, then,
Write me as one that loves his fellowmen.'
The angel wrote and vanished. The next night
It came again with great awakening light,
And showed the names whom love of God had blessed,
And 10! Ben Adhems name led all the rest

Of the best and most popular pieces of poetry ever
written by mortal man. The title OF the poem is
Abou Ben Adhem It has been immortalized by the
school children of Engish-speakng races. 1t is
